Is a young adult book about Chelsea Knot and how she lies to her parents and goes with her best friend Kristen for the New Year Eve party where there is alcohol and guys.
She has a bit too many and on her way to the guest bathroom she comes across a scene that she takes back downstairs and blabbers to others who inform her they will take care of the people, and they leave the house.
She wakes up the next morning to find out what happened when she passed out and she tells her parents what happened.
In school she now has to live with herself and others as they shun her so she takes a vow of silence even at school. One teacher daily gives her a detention slip while other teachers help her to still communicate without her voice.
What inspired her was a National Geographic story about a monk. Some of her older friends really beat up on her car, locker, etc, it's like she's being bullied.
As things get worse for her with the kids at school it also gets good for her because of a new friend that takes her to a diner. That friendship leads to many things for the family in time.
Glad to see the ending and how the one she hurt the most with her lie had the right answers for her.
