Good afternoon! I have been searching for days without any results for a youth fiction book, where the protagonist lives in a world where her memories are reset through a chip, women are forced to separate from men and do not know them, When the protagonist meets a men, she mistakes him for a cat.
It is a book that I have very good memories of :( if you help me I would appreciate it very much!!

Okay so i only remember scattered things about this book, but I'm trying to find it. So, here goes nothing.

1) it was a young adult book, i read it in like 2015.

2) so the main character is a boy. His parents died in some sort of accident, so he moved in with his aunt, maybe his grandmother, in a small town. He made friends with the florist's daughter, i think they were an Indian family. He screws up his neighbor's garden and has to fix that, sparking a sort of friendship. He thinks she's a witch. Turns out there is a portal in his town that leads to hell and in hell there is a people zoo where the demons can look at the people and change their appearance to look like the humans. The florist's daughter gets kidnapped and taken there. With the help of his neighbor he gets his friend back. His neighbor turns out to be a demon.

3) i think the main character's name was Jacob

Current Mood: frustrated

Book is about a little girl who is overly organized and neat. She is a teacher’s pet that is not well-liked by the other students, I think she’s in third grade. She has to sit next to or work on a project with the messy, wild girl in her class. At first they don’t get along but of course they end up becoming friends and helping each other and the neat girl learns to loosen up a bit and gets more friends in the process I think. I think she evens tries being messy herself at some point.

Images/things I remember:
-Book cover shows the neat girl with short hair and an upturned nose sort of look and the messy girl has curled red hair in a ponytail and is holding a binder and giving a crooked little smile.
-Neat girl is meticulous with organizing her binder and school supplies on her desk. When it rains, she is prepared and on top of her stuff. She has a thermos cup. Her bedroom is in the attic and she likes to pretend she is a princess in there.
-Messy girl is late to class and makes a mess from the rain on the neat girl. She brings a newt at some point.

I remembered as a kid the inner neat freak in me loved to read the descriptions of what the neat girl did so I could pretend to be as orderly as her and feel like I had my life together. Haha such a weird memory. I was reading an old, used book recently and the smell of the pages brought me back to this particular book for some reason!

Thanks for the help!
