Bookroo's summary

Veronica McGowan just wants to fit in, but her emotions have other plans. When her feelings start manifesting as uncontrollable powers—like fire belches and rain clouds—her life becomes a public spectacle. With her best friend Charlie, Veronica must uncover the origin of her 'stupidpowers' before they lead to total humiliation. Could her long-lost mom hold the key? And is that teacher really just a teacher? Dive into a world where emotions run wild and secrets lurk around every corner. Can Veronica embrace her uniqueness and find her place among the 'cool kids'?
