Bridget Jones comes to YA in a story about a girl who's a bit of a mess and sandwiched between two seemingly perfect sisters, that fans of Morgan Matson and Jenny Han will love.
"Oh, that Mia!" "Will she ever get her life together?" "What a mess." "Why can't she be like her sisters?"
Blah, blah, blah. That's all Mia Campbell-Richardson ever hears. From her parents, her teachers, and her never-do-wrong older sister, Grace. So what if she flirts with boys? Who cares if she likes going out? She's great at other stuff, too, like speaking her mind, or nailing the perfect haircut, or being the lifeblood of her friend group. But no one ever sees that.
When Grace comes home with a shocking announcement, Mia hopes that it's her now-not-so-perfect sister who will be getting into trouble. But, instead, it's Mia who spirals out of control, and she starts to realize that her attempts to make life all about Mia might just be about to destroy the things she loves most. Can't a girl get a little love around here?
Genre: Young Adult Fiction
