Girls may be a bit of a better audience, but there are definitely male characters that the boys will get a kick out of. Children will be able to relate to both characters and what they are going through. Who Should Read It: Even though the setting and characters are in middle school, the story would be fine for any reader. Certainly excited to share this one when I get back to school. This surprise was absolutely brilliant and I'm frustrated with myself for not seeing it as a reader.

There was a major BIG surprise at the end that I didn't see coming. As I got closer to the end, I saw that events were changing for both girls. It was a joy to read about both girls and see how different children can experience school especially middle-school. I loved how the two view points were presented differently. On the other hand, Katie's story was told mostly in graphic novel format. Emmie's story was told more in prose with some illustrations/graphics. What I Thought Of It: This was such a fun read and perfect for the car. The lives of these two girls drawn closer and closer together until they COLLIDE. Katie takes notice of the situation and decides to help as much as she can. More than ever, she just wants to disappear. At the day progresses, Emmie finds herself in a delicate situation when something of hers ends up in the wrong hands. Katie takes it all in with grace and ease. Katie could not be more different from Emmie. Then we have another girl at the same school. She does everything she can to stay hidden during one full school day. Emmie is quiet and wants to be 'invisible'. What It Is About: The story of two very different girls. Anyway, it was fun to read (my 6th book for my 21 Day/21 Book Challenge) during the car ride back today from Lawrence, KS where we left my son for his junior year. I'm thinking it was ALA, but the publication date is May 2017 and I was at ALA in June of 2017. How I Heard About It: I'm actually not exactly sure where I got my copy of this book.
