About This Book
Reach for this book when your teenager is feeling 'average' or struggling with the comparison trap that often comes with high school social hierarchies. Jan Miller is a senior who feels like a secondary character in her own life, constantly overshadowed by her effortlessly cool best friend. The story tackles the anxiety of college applications, the awkwardness of teen romance, and the pressure to project a 'fabulous' persona. It is a secular, realistic look at identity that validates the feelings of teens who do not fit the popular 'It Girl' mold. Parents will appreciate how the book rewards authenticity and self-reflection over social climbing, making it a comforting choice for a child needing a boost in self-confidence.
