Averil Offline by Amy Noelle Parks
4.0

As a parent, I’ve found myself slowly identifying more with the parents in middle grade and YA novels. And I did in fact purchase a cell phone for my middle schooler because he was going on a weekend bus trip with his class and I was worried about the student to chaperone ratio. But honestly? Team Averil all the way. This was cute and quirky and I hated the Ruby Slippers app. I’m also a little disgusted that the bias in coding classes still exists - I had the exact same experience 20+ years ago (multiple times).
