A humorous and heartfelt middle grade contemporary novel about Macy Weaver, a young Black girl struggling with how to be her true self and make a best friend-during a tumultuous year when her mom goes back to college. Twelve-year-old Macy Weaver knows relationships are complicated. Fresh off her latest friendship breakup, she's spent most of her summer break on her own. So when Macy's mother decides to go back to college three states away, Macy jumps on the chance to move-anything for a fresh start. But Macy's new home isn't exactly what she expected. Her mother's never around and her dad's always working. Lonelier than ever, Macy sets her sights on finding a new best friend. When she meets Brynn, who's smart and kind and already seems to have her whole life figured out-down to her future as a high fashion model-Macy knows she's it. The only problem is that Brynn already has a BFF and, as everyone knows, you can only have one. Resorting to old habits, Macy turns one small lie into a whole new life, which is when everything really falls apart. Ultimately, Macy must determine how to make things right and be true to herself-rather than chasing after the person she thinks she's supposed to be. Story Locale: A suburb of Baltimore, Maryland
