Jessica has been bounced among foster homes since the age of seven. Most of the kids at her new Michigan high school think she's a witch, because, you know, goth. The only one who gives her the time of day is geeky Oscar, who wants to recruit her fashion skills for his amateur cosplay group. When a woman claiming to be her biological mother barges into her DMs, there's a problem: Jess can’t reunite with her mom in New York City without a bunch of paperwork and she worries her social worker will never approve the trip. But Oscar's cosplay group is aiming for that big convention in New York! As the big convention draws near, Jess will have to decide whether chasing a dream of "family" is worth risking the family she has built for herself. -- Adapted from back cover.
