Why are they staring at me like that?Avery had been bullied in first grade, for she has a broken leg. After watching a video about a monster, she says that the monster already got to her bully. Nothing changes. The Inequality Monster, which is what she called it, is on the loose, leaving her on her own to hopefully catch it. After going through a portal, she goes face-to-face with the monster since she's The One, according to society.If she fails, the entire world is in danger, and the blame will be on her. Will she be able to find help or be solely on her own to attempt to defeat the monster? Does she spend valuable time thinking why she's The One, or does she go straight into action to save the world?Cover done by my mom!"The Inequality Monster is definitely a good read! Full of conflict, resolution, and some slices of humor!" - @Storytellingdude871 !…
