Middle school life exists in a very isolated, small community of people. ![]() This book goes a long way in explaining her own journey and how she became so attuned to other people and their feelings.Plot:Shannon is a young girl struggling to find her place in the world. She really understands young people and has a depth of understanding about their emotions and motivations. This is a very personal book and is based on the author's own memories.

Hale is an amazing author and I really love all her books. ![]() Real FriendsWritten by: Shannon HaleIllustrated by: LeUyen PhamI received an e-ARC from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.All i can say, on behalf of middle school parents everywhere, is "thank you" for writing this book!
