My Not-So-Still Life
Liz Gallagher
Vanessa is wise beyond her years. She's never really fit in at school, where all the kids act and dress the same. She's an artist who expresses her talent in the wacky colors she dyes her hair, her makeup and clothes. She's working on her biggest art project, and counting the days until she's grown up and can really start living. That adult world seems closer when Vanessa gets her dream job at the art supply store, Palette, where she worships the couple who runs it, Oscar and Maye. And she's drawn to a mysterious guy named James, who leads her into new, sometimes risky situations. Is she ready for this world, or not?

She's always dying her hair different colors and wearing funky make-up and clothes. The thing is, she wants to grow up faster.

However, she thinks she is ready, until she gets into a situation and realizes that everyone's right, shes not ready to grow up quite yet.
