The "Pretty" Girl

"This isn't going to be story of how the bad boy saved me, or everything tied up in a big, red bow in the end that magically fixes everything, or how I stop being bullied. Because it's not. Because I'm not the outcast who this happens to. I'm the 'pretty girl.'

You're probably thinking I'm a conceited, rich, skinny, popular girl by saying that. I'm not saying that because I'm conceited. I'm saying that because everyone believes I - out of hundreds of girls at my school - am the pretty one. And I'm not saying that because I'm rich. Because I'm not. I barely eat at home because there's never anything to eat. That's why I'm skinny.

And people think I'm perfect. They haven't got a clue."

Zoe Garcia has always been the "pretty girl" since middle school. Flawless hair, clear skin, beautiful eyes, and perfect body. But things are far from perfect. No one knows what goes on behind closed doors. Only her best friend Quinn Jones knows part of what's happening. No one comes in and makes it "perfect." But maybe someone can help.
