Winter Reading 2014 Spiked

Emma is horrified when her mother makes a deal with her math teacher and volunteers her to help with the volleyball team. Then the coach gets her to agree to be on the team rather than running his errands and cleaning the locker room. Unfortunately, her friend Hailey decides that Emma is a traitor to their friendship and begins to torment her. The team captain is not much better, because she resents that Emma joined the team reluctantly. Things get worse and worse as bullying at school and online makes Emma miserable. Will she find some real friends that will stand up for her? Will everyone see the bullies for what they really are? And will Emma rediscover her love of sports? This story has sports, friendships, and other complications all set in a school environment. It's great for readers who enjoy sports stories or school stories.

I read an e-book provided by the publisher through NetGalley. Watch the trailer for more information.
