Outrageously Alice 

Now that she is settling into eighth grade, the class she used to envy, Alice Mckinley is discovering that it isn’t all that exciting. But, maybe its up to her to make this year as thrilling as she thought it would be? Out with the old, plain-Jane Alice in with the new, stylish, creative Alice. Shes sick of being boring. Its time to be outrageous! But, what if outrageous isnt all its cracked up to be either? What if instead Alice finds herself in situations that are more embarrassing than they are wild and fun? Is Alice destined to be the same boring girl forever?
