• PROLOGUE

    Hello, my name is Anju Colfer. I’m an average 17 year old girl, in the average city of Flox, in the average county of Quento. I sort-of like high school, but every one sort-of likes high school. I get good grades, like As and Bs, I’m decent at sports, and I’m not interested in any of the guys at my school, unlike my best friend Jen, who’s dated every boy at school. . . twice. . . at least.

    Well, not everything about me is normal. I have jet black hair; I’m the only person in Flox with black hair. And my favorite thing about myself is my eyes, they are a pale violet. Lots of people have asked me if I wear contacts, which I don’t. Because of my hair, I normally have my back lengthed hair in a bun under a hat. It’s become a style at my school.

    I guess you could say a dress gothicly; I just wear a lot of black when I can.

    On my 17th birthday I felt a change, but thought nothing of it. But, since then, some odd things have happened. . .
