    About this ebook

    Addison Taylor is a responsible adult. At least, that's what she put on her job application. Addy hated high school on her first go round, often referred to as Potato Face as she read a book in the corner. And now, on her first day as an English teacher, she's pretty sure she won't make it through this second serving of hell.
