Well, That Was Awkward - Rachel Vail

Set in the tumultuous world of eighth grade, this delightful take on Cyrano de Bergerac by the author of Unfriended is laugh-out-loud funny, but also perceptive and touching. \nGracie has never felt like this before. One day, she suddenly can't breathe, can't walk, can't anything--and the reason is standing right there in front of her, all tall and weirdly good-looking: A.J. \nBut it turns out A.J. likes not Gracie but Gracie's beautiful best friend, Sienna. Obviously Gracie is happy for Sienna. Super happy She helps Sienna compose the best texts, responding to A.J.'s surprisingly funny and appealing texts, just as if she were Sienna. Because Gracie is fine. Always She's had lots of practice being the sidekick, second-best. \n \nIt's all good. Well, almost all. She's trying. \n \nFunny and tender, Well, That Was Awkward goes deep into the heart of middle school, and finds that even with all the heartbreak, there can be explosions of hope and moments of perfect happiness.\n
