When Avery's journal, filled with her private thoughts and biggest fears, goes missing, it feels like the worst thing that could happen. Until she meets Skylar, Damien, Natalie, and Christopher, and together, they search for the missing journal. Along the way, Avery begins to find her place, and they each discover that good things can come from scary places.
