“OMG!” I gasped as I stared in disbelief at a broken pencil, a candy wrapper, a wad of gum, and a used tissue.

“Gross! Some kids are SO immature!” I fumed, trying to pretend I wasn’t as disappointed as I felt. “This is NOT a trash can!”

“I’m sorry,” Lauren said. “But our reader feedback has been almost nonexistent. We’re hoping your column will change things. But it looks like the paper is going to take some time to catch on.”

I didn’t want to say it, but I was worried our paper would never “catch on.” Other than Brandon’s amazing photographs, the articles were dullsville.

The one time I did read an issue, there was a page-long interview with the lunch lady on nutrition. Yawn!

First of all, how exciting could her interview be? Second, what would she know about nutrition, serving us imitation Spam on a moldy bun?

After Lauren left the room, I collapsed in a chair and blinked back my tears. I felt as worthless as that trash in my advice box !

I decided to update Chloe and Zoey by text: “Bad news!! My Miss Know-It-All advice column was a total FLOP! No letters, just trash!”

I got the exact same text from both of them: “!”

That girl was basically a middle school mafioso in lip gloss and hoop earrings.

It was quite obvious she really, really liked attending parties.

That’s when I got a text from Chloe to Zoey and me: “Just finished COOLEST book ever. Shy girl decides to run for student council president and her opponent/crush becomes her campaign manager.”

I knew Chloe LOVED to read, but I was in the middle of a MAJOR life crisis! For once, couldn’t she just try focusing on ME instead of her stupid book characters?!

Then Chloe sent us both a third text: “Snarfing down breakfast. Zoey, call me right NOW! Nikki, meet us in the library in fifteen minutes!”

Just GREAT !

Like I wanted to start off my disastrous morning sitting in the library listening to Chloe gush over yet another of her teen romance novels.

I was already in the library sulking and having a pity party for myself when Zoey arrived loaded down with empty shoe boxes and poster paper.

Chloe was not far behind, lugging a big bag stuffed with scissors, glue, construction paper, paint, and glitter.

“What’s g-going on?” I sniffed sadly.

“We’re here to save our FAVE advice columnist, Miss Know-It-All . . . ,” Chloe explained excitedly, and gave me jazz hands.

“We came up with the idea of putting up posters with supercute help boxes all around the school,” Zoey said. “So . .
