The last thing sixteen-year-old Maisie Martin thought sheād be doing on her vacation is entering a beauty pageant. Not when sheās spent most of her life hiding her body from everyone. Not when her Dad is AWOL and her gorgeous older sister has returned to rock Maisieās already shaky confidence. And especially not when her best friend starts flirting with the boy sheās always loved. But Maisieās got something to prove.
As she writes down all the ways this vacation is going from bad to worse in her school-assignment journal, what starts as a homework torture-device might just end up being an account of how Maisie didnāt let anything, or anyone, hold her back.
Jenna Guillameās American debut features a plus-size protagonist with a compelling, funny, and authentic narrative voice. This relatable and charming novel about friendship, confidence, and self-love will draw readers in as Maisieās realistic emotional journey unveils the importance of embracing oneās body and celebrating oneās self. Available in eBook!
