When something is fresh, don't people just love wrecking it?Eve Belkin is facing a problem, well a number of problems. Her dad was "downsized," which means he lost his job, her family has had to move, and now Eve must begin a new school in the middle of the year.

Because Eve has decided to camouflage herself--for now. She's going to be nice. She's going to be normal. Or at least she's going to pass as nice and normal--even if it means giving up her favorite clothes and keeping her mouth shut.And Eve pulls it off--she invents a whole new image, a whole new person. A new Eve--her own worst enemy.
