OLDER FICTION
Johnson, Peter

Loserville

(3) YA Lucas is powerless to stop his friend Derek's wicked stepmother from dragging the family onto a reality television show called Loserville. Always a little unpredictable, Derek starts to really unravel after his appearance. The story is told in a spare, unemotional style, and its strength is its characters, most of whom are on the edge and some of whom can't bring themselves back.
