About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is navigating the fallout of a public social blunder, a friendship betrayal, or the complicated feelings that come with a strained relationship with a parent. It is an ideal choice for the middle schooler who feels misunderstood or 'too much' in their emotional expression, providing a safe space to explore how to move forward when you feel like everyone is judging your worst moment. The story follows Evie as she escapes to London to avoid the shame of a viral video, only to confront the deeper pain of her relationship with her father. It beautifully balances the lighthearted fun of a summer abroad with the heavy work of rebuilding self-esteem and family trust. Parents will appreciate the way it models emotional resilience and the importance of second chances, both for others and for oneself. While the protagonist navigates romantic feelings, the core of the book is about self-discovery and healing.
