Reach for this book when your teenager is struggling with the pressure to be likable at the expense of their own competence, or if they feel they must hide parts of themselves to fit into online spaces. Viola Reyes is a brilliant gamer and ambitious student leader who creates a male alter ego in an online game to escape the sexism of the gaming world. When she unknowingly teams up with her school rival, the story explores the masks we wear to be accepted and the courage it takes to be authentically yourself. It is a modern, witty exploration of gender double standards and digital identity. Parents will appreciate the nuanced take on leadership, the healthy deconstruction of high school stereotypes, and the way it validates the experiences of girls in male-dominated hobbies. It is a sophisticated, secular look at growing up in the digital age, suitable for ages 13 and up.
