Vail brings her sharp observations and wry humor to the world of eighth-grade friendships. Truly Gonzales is so thrilled to be asked by former best friend Natasha to sit at the popular table that she completely ditches her current best friend Hazel. Everything is exacerbated when prickly Hazel takes her revenge to social media. Shifting perspectives allow the story to unfold quickly.
