This was a very cute story about learning who you are and being your authentic self. 

I gave it four stars just because I do feel like the 8th graders were just a little unbelievable as real 8th graders. I will admit, I am not around middle schoolers and I’ve been out of middle school for a while now. But I just feel like sometimes the characters acted way more mature for their age, almost like they were adults handling the situations.
