She's made a small group of close friends and even flirted with romance, but her past in Hawaii is still hard to forget. And then . . . one by one the students of her new high school begin to die in a series of gruesome murders. Makani doesn't know who's next on the list.

Kom ons wees eerlik: Greg Heffley gaan nooit van sy wimpgewoontes ontslae raak nie. Iemand moet dit nog net aan Greg se pa verduidelik. Jy sien, Frank Heffley dink hy kan sy seun so ver kry om sy spiere te bult en hy laat Greg deelneem aan georganiseerde sport en ander “manlike” aktiwiteite. Natuurlik kan Greg maklik koes vir sy pa se pogings om hom te verander. Maar as Greg se pa dreig om hom na ’n militêre akademie te stuur, besef Greg hy sal hom moet regruk voordat hy weggeruk word.
A fresh and irreverent comedy starring a cast of neurodiverse characters - guaranteed to be one of the funniest novels you'll read. Leon John Crothers is 4779 days old (thirteen years and one month, if you're mathematically challenged). He has been 'moved on' from six different schools and most people think he has an attitude problem. Leon doesn't care for the label, in the same way that he doesn't care for Tim Burton, supermarket trolleys, train fanatics or Bounty bars. This time, however, things may turn out differently, as help comes from where he least expects it - Dr Snot, a physician at pains to help Leon navigate 'normal' and classmates, Tanya and Lawrence, who both face their own challenges. When school bully Glen Jenkins humiliates Leon in the school canteen and almost destroys Lawrence, Leon very reluctantly agrees to the formation of a club, The Asparagus Bunch. How Leon manages to navigate school woes and family drama - and astonishingly ends up with not one but two friends - is nothing short of a miracle, or maybe just simply down to being different.
