Bex Carter is running for class president. At first she decides to run, simply to challenge her arch enemy Ava Groves, but the more she campaigns, the more she wants to win for the right reasons. Things get a little complicated when a boy is thrown into the presidential race and Bex soon discovers that love and politics just don't mix. Will Bex be triumphant in becoming Lincoln Middle's eighth-grade president, or will mean girl Ava Groves win and make Bex's last year of middle school miserable? Ages 9 and up
