Feb of 8th repeat
Plot
Lou, who was the worst kid ever when the Papadakis's were fostering her, is back in town. Her aunt and uncle adopted her and her brother and now they've moved to Stoneybrook. Also, the Addison's are moving. Also, it's Black History Month so Abby is doing a project on the Underground Railroad and (obviously) she involves all the kids in Stoneybrook.
Lou is acting like a perfect angel because she is scared that her aunt and uncle will get rid of her. She is annoyingly helpful and makes a lot of mistakes bc she is so obsessed with perfection. Abby talks to her brother about it, and be basically says Lou is on edge because she is scared of getting thrown back into the system. Even though she knows that, Abby snaps at her and then Lou becomes a brat again. Then she's good again. Then she's bad again. Finally she has a breakdown and her aunt and uncle say they will never get rid of her ever.
So that is settled. Abby's project is amazing. And they throw a goodbye part for the Addison's, and the family who moves in comes. The dad seems super controlling and the kids seem scared of him.
Takeaways
This book was SO boring.
Abby mentions a few times how bossy Kristy is, and how she is uncomfortable when she isn't in charge. She is super passive aggressive about it.
AFTER Lou's brother tells Abby how sensitive Lou is, Abby yells at her. It's so rude.
Again, this book was so boring.
Best Character
Mallory, because even though it had nothing to do with her, she helps Abby A LOT with her project and then stands at the fair with her the entire time.
Worst Character
Abby, for a variety of reasons. And probably the dad of the new kids, because I'm sure it will come out later that he is abusive.
