Move over Georgia Nicolson, April-May has just enrolled. "Life is not a bowl of cherries. Suck it up." April-May loves boys with green eyes, reading at the back of class, and wearing non-regulation socks. April-May hates stuck up rich kids and two-minute noodles. Life at her new school would have been fine if Mrs. Ho, the English teacher, hadn't decided that April May was a no-good, trouble-maker, bursary-kid. April-May decides that Mrs. Ho has to go. Then April-May meets the drop-dead gorgeous Sebastian, befriends the total suck up mouth-breather Melly, and things get a little more complicated. A Month with April-May is a one-eyebrow-raised account of a teenager's trials and tribulations as she navigates a new school, a new family situation, and a whole new way of life.
