<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Twelve-year-old Ella has not even started seventh grade yet, but she has already been drawn into the fire of social media, because for some unknown reason "popular" Morgan has designated her as a best friend and has ambitious plans to turn "Morgan and Ella" into an online sensation; but the role of Morgan's best friend comes with a lot of sacrifices, such as dropping her own best friend Sophie and letting Morgan organize Ella's life around their "brand," and soon Ella starts to wonder if popularity is worth it, and if she can be both Morgan's friend and still be true to herself--if she can only figure out who herself really is.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>The most hilarious, charming, realistic story of middle-grade friendships you'll ever read, from Megan McCafferty, the mega bestselling, beloved author of <i>Sloppy Firsts</i>.<p></p>Twelve-year-old Ella has everything she needs to take seventh grade by storm, from the perfect outfit to the perfect new best friend. She's still not 100% sure why cool, confident Morgan has chosen Ella to be her newest sidekick, but Ella is flattered by the attention, even if it means giving up some of the things she's always loved, like fantasy novels . . . and her former best friend, Sophie. Ella feels a <i>little </i>guilty about ditching Sophie, but middle school is no laughing matter, and Ella knows that it'll be safer in popular Morgan's shadow than by Sophie's side.But life as Morgan's best friend is trickier than Ella imagined. Everything has to be <i>perfect</i>, from their on brand selfies to the videos they record of them singing. And the more demanding Morgan becomes, the more Ella starts to wonder if she made the right choice. But Sophie already has a new best friend, leaving Ella feeling more alone and out of place than ever.So when Ella discovers a new activity that she's really good at -- a hopelessly dorky sport that Morgan has <i>forbidden </i>her from pursuing, Ella has to ask herself what matters more: popularity . . . or staying true to herself? But does she even know who she really is without loyal Sophie by her side?<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p><b>Praise for True to Your Selfie: </b></p><p>A quick, entertaining read for fans of frenemy fiction. -- <i>Kirkus Reviews</i></p><p></p><p>This current and relatable novel will resonate with middle school readers, especially those who have felt the pressure to create a perfect social media presence. --<i> School Library Journal</i></p><p></p><p>McCafferty effectively captures tween speak and the allure of social media while exposing its inauthenticity. -- <i>Publishers Weekly</i></p><p></p><p></p><p><b>Praise for</b><b>Megan McCafferty</b>: </p><p>Such a sharp, funny, poignant heroine, with an inner world we can all relate to.
