Reach for this book when you notice your teen is becoming a shadow of their best friend, or if you suspect their closest relationship has become one-sided and controlling. Gracie and Savanna have been inseparable for years, but as they navigate high school, the cracks in their bond begin to show. While Savanna is charismatic and bold, she is also manipulative and prone to lying to get her way. Gracie must grapple with the realization that staying loyal to her friend might mean losing herself. This is a grounded, realistic look at the quiet courage required to set boundaries. It is appropriate for middle and high schoolers dealing with social hierarchies and the evolving nature of childhood friendships. Parents will appreciate how it validates the difficulty of walking away from someone you truly love, while emphasizing the importance of personal integrity.
