About the Book

It's summertime, and Julie and Lydia are going on a road trip! They're looking forward to seeing the sights and getting some new perspective on their quest for popularity. Full color.

Book Synopsis

After spending six months apart, best friends Lydia and Julie are reunited at last! Book three in the series that's the basis for the hit streaming show!

Julie has said good-bye to the mean girls, and Lydia is ready to apply her hard-earned friendship lessons to founding their own crew. But bad news interrupts their reunion: Their friend Sukie's mother, ill for many years, has passed away. This shakes Lydia and Julie, who reevaluate their goals and decide to focus more on being supportive of the friends they have.

Unfortunately, their well-meaning schemes almost immediately start to go awry, and everyone seems to be mad at them for reasons beyond their control. How can they be better friends when no one seems to want to give them the chance?

As always, Lydia and Julie's hilarious back-and-forth notes form the backbone of the novel, in which Amy Ignatow reveals all-too-true truths about friendship and loyalty.
