Seventh-grader Madison and her two best friends are bullied by former pals. After a suggestion from her peculiar hairstylist, Madison and company burn their ex-friends' names in a ceremony that turns them into the mean girls. Madison's narration has funny moments, but many plot elements, including the magic aspect and the reason for the bullies' meanness, are never fully explained.
