Kayla

Like Totally CluelessWhen we first meet Kayla, on the first page of the book, we see her talking really fast and kind of ignoring Zoey's well-being. This is how Zoey describes it: "Kayla was talkin...

Heath

Drunk but DevotedHeath is Zoey's sorta-ex-boyfriend, and she describes him in conversation as "My almost-boyfriend" (1.8), if that makes sense. What's so unappealing? He's supposed to be pretty hot...

Zoey's Step-Dad (John Heffer)
