Please Ignore Vera Dietz by As King
Vera's spent her whole life secretly in love with her best friend, Charlie Kahn. And over the years she's kept a lot of his secrets. Even after he betrayed her. Even after he ruined everything.
So when Charlie dies in dark circumstances, Vera knows a lot more than anyone--the kids at school, his family, even the police. But will she emerge to clear his name? Does she even want to?
Edgy and gripping, Please Ignore Vera Dietz is an unforgettable novel: smart, funny, dramatic, and always surprising.
King is the author of eight critically praised young adult novels. Her novel Please Forget Vera Dietz won a Michael L. Printz Award in 2011. The Los Angeles Times Book Prize went to Printz Honor and Ask the Passengers in 2013. She was named one of the top young adult novelists writing today by the New York Times. King came to Pennsylvania with her family after more than a decade living on a farm and teaching adult literacy in Ireland.
