Emma's Gossip Column

Emma Sawyer earned her fame in middle school as author of Emma’s Gossip Column. Being a star should have brought bliss, yet she’s grown tired of raging rumors and gritty gossip. Instead of enjoying eighth grade year at Riverside Middle School, she finds herself avoiding her bossy editor while attempting to hide a secret she’s promised to keep. So when Emma stumbles upon a mystery blanketing her town, she gladly shifts her calling from gossip columnist to case decoder. Only problem is, her fame begins to dwindle as she struggles to uncover a secret someone else is trying to keep.

Jessie is an ambitious but lonely high school junior struggling with EDNOS (Eating Disorder Not Otherwise Specified), a disorder which takes on various features of anorexia, bulimia, and exercise addiction. Burdened with pressures from school, peers, and the responsibility of caring for two younger sisters, Jessie tries to control the chaos through her disorder, but finds herself becoming even more isolated and depressed. After a life-threatening incident sends her to the hospital, Jessie’s family confronts her; she admits she has a problem and agrees to enter a residential treatment facility.
