description: Magpie Lewis started writing in her yellow notebook the day her family self-destructed. That was the night Eryn Magpie's sister skipped town and left her to fend for herself. That was the night of Brandon Phipp's party. Now Magpie is called a slut whenever she walks down the hallways of her high school her former best friend won't speak to her and she spends her lunch period with a group of misfits who've all been socially exiled like she has. And so feeling trapped and forgotten Magpie retreats to her notebook dreaming up a place called Near. Near is perfect--somewhere where her father never cheated her mother never drank and Magpie's own life never derailed so suddenly. She imagines Near so completely so fully that she writes it into existence right in her own backyard. It's a place where she can have anything she wants...even revenge.
