Lizzy Carbon and the Loosers' Club (Volume 1)
This unconventional protagonist tells her story with black humour and a surprising twist.
Apparently, the universe has it in for Lizzy. She’s the most unpopular girl in her class – and suddenly stuck with a bunch of misfits and her own project for the school festival. The whole thing seems doomed to fail: No one believes in them, not even the team members themselves, and obstacles are constantly thrown their way. Lizzy, however, is not one to give up. Together they could finally make a change! She’s also a bit short of domestic bliss: her parents are at each other’s throats, her brother is acting even weirder than usual, and her best friend suffers from disastrous lapses of taste. If mediating that weren’t enough, there’s this new guy in school who throws Lizzy’s heart into turmoil. Cue her friends, who have decided to make Lizzy the new students’ rep – which is the last thing in the world she wants! Or so she thought until she finds out that this might just be the golden opportunity to get back at a certain teacher who has become Lizzy’s personal foe ...
