Fourteen-year-old Sofia Wolfe has her fair share of problems, and she doesn't have anyone to talk to...until she finds "Dear Kate." The teen advice columnist provides Sofia with an anonymous outlet where she can express everything she's been holding inside. But then "Dear Kate" shows up on her doorstep. With her dad. As his girlfriend. With the keeper of all of her secrets now dating her dad, how on earth will Sofia make it through the year?

Thrilled when she is assigned to work with her crush, Michael, for a school newspaper article about whether or not students should pay for extracurricular activities, Samantha becomes increasingly dismayed by how many things Michael and she view differently.

Thriving in her position as the school newspaper's anonymous advice columnist, Samantha becomes the victim of cyberbullying when a well-meant suggestion backfires, a situation that is further complicated by hostility over her efforts to improve cafeteria food.
