<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"First published in Great Britain in March 2019 by Bloomsbury Publishing Plc"--Title page verso.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>In this contemporary YA for fans of Becky Albertalli, one girl decides it's time to be really be herself--but will that cost her the best friend who once meant everything to her?</b> <p/>Ever since her mom died and her family moved to a new town four years ago, sixteen-year-old Vetty Lake has hidden her heart. She'd rather keep secrets than risk getting hurt--even if that means not telling anyone that she's pretty sure she's bisexual. <p/>But this summer, everything could change. Vetty and her family are moving back to her old neighborhood, right across the street from her childhood best friend Pez. Next to Pez, she always felt free and fearless. Reconnecting with him could be the link she needs to get back to her old self. <p/>Vetty quickly discovers Pez isn't exactly the boy she once knew. He has a new group of friends, a glamorous sort-of-girlfriend named March, and a laptop full of secrets. And things get even more complicated when she feels a sudden spark with March. <p/>As Vetty navigates her relationship with Pez and her own shifting feelings, one question looms: Does becoming the girl she longs to be mean losing the friendship that once was everything to her?</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Explores...underdiscussed facets of teenage sexuality...with exceptional insight." --<i>Kirkus Reviews</i> <p/>"An intriguing story of family, friendship, and self-identity." --<i>School Library Journal</i> <p/>"Collins writes a well-rounded character in Vetty...while keeping the most vital theme in mind: self-discovery and understanding." --<i>Booklist</i> <p/>"The realistic, respectful, and sweet relationship that develops is sure to appeal to romance fans . . .
