What's a girl to do when life gets totally insane?īarbara Dee has created a witty, poignant portrait of an intense, honest, feisty girl who is ferociously funny and only too human. Mullaney isn't even reading her brilliant work, Cassie starts submitting journal entries like "A Virtual Tour of My Insanely Messy Desk." But her sassy humor isn't winning her any friends or helping her ailing grades. Mullaney - the weirdest, hardest English teacher in the seventh grade - who hates everything she does. At school Cassie's two "best" friends are turning nasty, and a cute boy is sending mixed signals.

It's up to Cassie to prevent total chaos at home - or so she thinks. Twelve-year-old Cassie has a lot to cope with when her father moves "out of the picture." Her mom's constantly working overtime, her teenage sister's going AWOL, and her little brother seriously needs attention.
