Replica series by Marilyn Kaye.

It's like Orphan Black, but for tweens, and features lots of 90s and early 00s references. It's really stupid (in a good way) but also loads of fun and omfg there's a plot twist in every book. I get all giddy just thinking about it.
At first you think it's full of clichés and stereotypes, and then BAM. SURPRISE MOTHERFUCKER. You thought this was a nice, sweet chicklit series? Nah son, you got played!

So there's this girl, Amy, who basically wins at life because she's so perfect at everything and never gets sick. Turns out she's a clone and her mom totally kidnapped her from some shady laboratory years ago. Hijinks ensue. (If I had to sum it up, it's like a girly version of X Files.)

I used to hunt down any Replica fics I could get my hands on, but I've given up. There's just no fandom anymore, and everybody who grew up with the series is already a grownup. Plus I feel like any potential new fan will just compare it to Orphan Black (which I do, too) or they're put off by the "perfect" protagonist (she's not! she's selfish and petty and I love it).

I just. Sigh. I love it and I wish it had a fandom.

This sounds like the summary of a book I read about half a chapter of in sixth grade, and then promptly stopped reading because someone brought home a pig's eyeball from a dissection and that just grossed me out to much to continue reading. Is that the one?

Doesn't ring a bell but there are quite a few characters in the story who I could easily see doing that. If it was mentioned in passing it was probably the cute neighbor boy.

Is that an exited 'Oooh!' or a passionate 'Oooh!' ?

I read some of those a really long time ago! I don't remember which book I stopped at, but after I stopped following it, I was still curious enough to look through some of the later books in the store. I remember being shocked when I saw that -- SPOILER if anyone's reading this -- the Mean Girl was killed off for real.

Yeah, there were a lot of... surprisingly disturbing scenes. Shit got dark real fast.
