Slam Book

Anna is desperate to be popular, but the key to being cool has devastating consequences

About to start her freshman year of high school, Anna wants more than anything to be popular. At a family reunion, her cousin describes a secret "slam book"—a notebook kids use to write all kinds of comments about one another. Anna decides this may be her key to success.


Anna's friends Paige, Randy, and Jessie quickly jump in on the nasty fun and before long, Anna has realized her dreams of popularity. But the slam book keeps getting meaner, and Paige and Anna start using the book to fight with each other. Soon, Anna comes up with the ultimate prank, using lonely and insecure Cheryl as her means to pull it off. But Anna's vicious trick may lead to tragic consequences.
