Overview
Featuring sprayed stenciled edges (depicting doodles by Rubie)!
The true middle school experience—awkward, DRAMATIC, and really fun!—comes to life in this hilarious, New York Times bestselling, diary-style series featuring color-lined pages and black and white illustrations. In the second book, Rubie has to share her BFF with the new girl in town.
Rubie is back from summer camp and FINALLY reunited with her bestie, Riley. Rubie wants BFF time, but Riley only cares about introducing Rubie to Zan, the new girl in town who Riley thinks is just so cool. Rubie would like to love Zan too…but she just can’t. Zan (whose real name is Alexandra but insists on going by “Zan” even though there’s NO Z in her name!) is super over the top, loves attention, and will do just about anything to get it. She bugs Rubie, plain and simple. How does Riley not see it? And why does Zan have to be around all the time?
And that’s not all. Back for a new school year, Rubie has new teachers, challenging new classes with way more homework, and a new crush. Plus, her parents are being weird. Her mom has started getting all dressed up just to run errands, and her dad bought Rubie a giant cowboy hat (does he even know her at ALL?).
Even with the world around her going crazy, Rubie is all about facing every challenge head-on and OWNING IT!
