The Betrayal of Bindy Mackenzie
The Betrayal of Bindy Mackenzie | Jaclyn Moriarty
10 posts | 15 read | 51 to read
Bindy is the smartest girl at Ashbury High. She ranks in the 99.9th percentile in everything she does (including extra-curricular activities - she is casual Employee of the Month every month at Kmart). She is also the kindest girl at Ashbury High. For example: - Before each school year begins, she memorises departmental outlines of her subjects. That way, she can gently prompt those teachers who forget or stray from the course. - She reads up on common teen anxieties, and offers lunch-time advisory sessions in a relaxed, convivial setting (the locker room). But Bindy suspects that something may be missing - something more than the 0.1 she needs to make the 100th percentile. And, on the first day of Year 11, at the first session of the FAD (Friendship and Development) Project, her worst suspicions are confirmed. Nobody likes her. So Bindy makes a decision. Enough of this compassionate Bindy; she has been wasting her time. The real and ruthless Bindy is about to emerge.

I read a lot of #YoungAdult novels, but this is the only one currently within arm's reach. #ReadingWomenMonth

drokka I read the next one in the series (didn't know this one existed - still need to get my hands on it). Anyway, the follow up is excellent. (Edit: okay, now I feel silly since yours is the third book. I'll need to get that one too) (edited) 7y
JacintaMCarter @drokka I didn't even know it was part of a series! I'll have to check out the other books now. 7y

I highly recommend this quirky story about a super-smart girl with not-so-super social skills, who feels compelled to chronicle her entire life. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

bibli0_brain I love this book! 8y

A long day at school + plans-due day + birthday get-together @gibblr 's house for @WanderingBookaneer = little time spent with Bindy! Will try to make it up with a bit of bedtime reading 😊

GlitteryOtters It's been about 2 years since I last read this book...I totally need to re-read this soon (so much love for this and all her books! 💕) 8y

As I wait for @WanderingBookaneer I notice a book beckoning me from the shelves of her classroom library. I am unable to resist the allure of Bindy Mackenzie 😎

TirzahPrice I adore Jaclyn Moriarty's books!! 8y
gibblr That came from my classroom library that sadly is no more. The kids used to love that book! 8y
drokka One year I handed out a half dozen copies of her 'Year of Secret Assignments'. I connected so well with the characters and I was old enough to have been my cohorts' mums. I've always wanted to read this one but need to order a copy. 8y
