Revenge always seems like the perfect plan.

Yet people don’t think of the consequences.

Clara Jones is one of those people.

She has a past, just like everyone else. Although her past is tainted. It’s been ruined, scribbled on, screwed up and trodden on. Her past was full of misery, confrontation and quite frankly, she’d love to forget all about it. But this past is holding her back; she takes one step forward and gets dragged two back.

So why not get revenge?

Why not ruin the lives of those who ruined hers?

But will it all plan out like she wanted it to?

After all, revenge is a funny thing. Once you start, it’s hard to stop. But once you do stop, do you really much better about yourself? Or does ruining a fellow human beings’ life just make you as bad as one of your victims?

Follow Clara on her quest to change her life. Whether that’s for better or worse; who knows…

I am Clara by MyriamRow

Clara Molino is far from a perfect warrior, and she makes that known, amongst her passionate lack of interest in being the chosen one. Grouchy and self-deprecating, Clara is any of us placed in the same shoes. Everyone wants to be a hero, but does anyone want to be injected with painful superhuman liquid, be trained by a morally questionable group and battle a reincarnated, centuries old warrior and her minions? Between having a dead-beat dad, an alcoholic mother and practically raising her four siblings, Clara just wants a break. She wants to feel like herself again. She expects a two-week school trip around the world, with her best friend, to present the perfect break. She does not expect to be harassed by a ghastly, frail older woman. She fights every step of the hero-becoming process, thus establishing a challenging relationship with her mentor whom Clara has nicknamed after the Indonesian word for Nightmare. Her mentor is convinced that love is Clara's only down fall; fears that her relationship with Easton Andrews will be her undoing. But there is absolutely nothing going on between her and Andrews; except constant child-like bickering... At least, according to Clara. As Clara and Andrews' relationship blossoms, as they both become impossibly closer and distant, is Mimpi right? Will love destroy Clara?
