Seventh grader Bag loves to read. It doesnt come easy to her, thanks to her dyslexia, but shes determined, and she spends every afternoon after school at the library. Its a ritual she refuses to miss.

Then a new career opportunity for her mother means Bag will no longer have a ride to her cherished library. Instead, Bag will have to wait for a ride at school. With her sister, Minerva. At cheerleading practice.

Bag is uncoordinated and completely uninterested in school spirit. But she is curious about what her sister has been hiding. Minerva has been acting stranger than usual, and Bag has been noticing. So while cheerleading practice may be the last place Bag wants to be, shes going to use her time wisely and get to the bottom of Minervas secrets.
