Reach for this book when your teen is struggling with the pressure of high school social hierarchies or feels like they are being eclipsed by the success of siblings and peers. Elena Soo feels invisible compared to her high-achieving sisters and her famous childhood friend, Robbie Choi, who returns as a global K-pop star to fulfill a childhood prom promise. Beyond the glittery celebrity romance, the story explores the difficulty of maintaining one's integrity and privacy in the age of social media and public scrutiny. It is an ideal pick for ages 12 and up, offering a safe space to discuss self-worth, the true meaning of friendship, and the courage it takes to define yourself on your own terms rather than through the lens of others' expectations.
