Reach for this book when your teenager is feeling disillusioned by social injustice or is struggling with the toxic side of being online.

The story explores the heavy toll of activism, the importance of female friendship, and the courage it takes to remain vulnerable in a world that can be cruel. While the themes are sophisticated, the book is written with a sharp, humorous edge that keeps it accessible. It is an excellent choice for 14 to 18 year olds who are navigating their own political awakening or learning how to set boundaries on social media.
