The Fall of Beth Anderson

As if the first year of high school wasn't hard enough, Beth Anderson finds herself starting it in a brand-new town, far from her best friend Elizabeth and every other friend she's ever had. At first, she feels up to the challenge and even excited about it, especially when oh-so-cute Tristan strikes up a flirtation by her locker one morning. But Beth's self-confidence quickly evaporates as Tristan begins behaving strangely towards her, the meanest mean girl at school initiates a vendetta against her, and she can't seem to make a single friend, no matter how hard she tries. As fall slowly leans toward winter, she is confronted with challenges that threaten to undermine her self-esteem completely, until she finally gets an inkling that Beth Anderson just might happen to be someone worth fighting for.

A richly realized tale of adolescent angst and insecurity, The Fall of Beth Anderson will resonate with every teenager who's ever doubted their self-worth....
