(4) YA Shiels is Vista View High's put-together, motivated student body chair. When sexy Pyke, "a flying ancient screeching monster," becomes the first interspecies exchange student, in-control Shiels is driven to distraction. Cumyn's bizarre story takes an unusual (and surreal) look at diversity and inclusion, which may appeal to some readers. Shiels's evolution from type-A to less-controlling is believable, but she comes across as too adult.
