'An action-packed week with a bit of real-life fairy tale and a taste of happily ever after thrown in for good measure. Maybe her first experiment started this mess, but her second plan is sure to fix it! Will her two wrongs make a right?

Sure, LB has never seen a superhero movie or drawn a comic, and LB has definitely never done roller derby before - but if Kat likes those things, why not try? As she steps out of her comfort zone and into Kat’s, LB discovers a world of new adventures. She needs a new hypothesis, and fast, to revamp her relationship with Kat before Courtenay can ruin everything again. like Courtenay? Just when she thought things were getting back to normal, LB’s friendships are more confusing than ever! Then the bully from their old school, Courtenay, shows up - pretending to be nice! Worst of all, Kat seems to. Even though her best friend, Kat, says she’s forgiven her for that whole using-science-to-make-herself-popular thing, things are still pretty weird between them. Publisher: Scholastic Inc.From middle-grade darling Anna Staniszewski comes the story of a girl who might just have friendship down to a science. Is this fairy tale cruise under a wicked curse?

Things aren't all bad-it's good to see her mom acting confident again after the divorce, and she's learning a lot about obscure German fairy tales and how to fold towels into entertaining shapes for little kids (um, yay?). Ainsley never wanted to spend her summer on a fairy tale cruise-especially since, instead of lounging by the pool, she's running around the ship doing favor after favor for her cruise director mom.
