Notes: I understand that there are a lot of content warnings in this book so readers may be less likely to eargerly read this book. But this is one of my favorite books that I have read, it's important to read books from the different perspectives of others. I really recomend that you read this book and I hope you find Tori as sarcastically funny and relatable as she is. :)
Summary: Tori Spring doesn't hate people. She just finds them to be exhausting, but then she meets Michael Holden. The Michael Holden that looked for Tori to tell her something but then pretended to forget. The Michael Holden that she called when she got stuck in the computer lab. But the more she spends time with Michael the more she realizes maybe she does need a friend, even if she thinks she doesn't deserve him. So together they work on trying to stop Solitaire. A mysterious person that's creating havoc with their pranks at Higgs School. Who is Solitaire? What do they want? And will Tori and Michael be able to stop them before it's too late?
