Description

THE BESTSELLING AND HILARIOUSLY FUNNY SERIES FOR KIDS, TOLD ENTIRELY IN THE FORM OF A GROUP CHAT, FROM AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR AND COMEDY WRITER, EMILY-JANE CLARK.

Kennedy, Liv and Devon are determined to have a cringe-free Year 8. After all, they are older, wiser and far less embarrassing now . . . right? WRONG. Kennedy's enemy-turned-friend, Graham, has asked her out on a date, but she definitely does NOT want to go out with him (she thinks). Far better to get into an epic game of dares instead!

Meanwhile, Lacey is hiding a secret, Liv and Devon are suffering crush drama of their own and Kennedy's new ultra-strict form tutor has NOT taken a liking to her. What could possibly go wrong!?
