Reach for this book when your teenager is feeling 'invisible' in their social circle or when a shift in the high school ecosystem has left them questioning their own value. It is a sharp, funny exploration of social supply and demand that speaks to the heart of teen insecurity and the frantic desire to fit in when the 'rules' of popularity suddenly change. When a local private school lures away most of the male population, the few boys left at Julius P. Heil High become overnight celebrities. Through the eyes of Hunter, a self-described slacker, and his best friend Kelly, the story navigates the absurdity of high school crushes and the strain that sudden fame puts on long-standing friendships. It is an ideal pick for readers who appreciate satire and need a reminder that social status is often arbitrary and fleeting.
