About this ebook

Seventh grade was supposed to be fun, but Tori is having major drama with her BFF, Sienna. Sienna changed a lot over the summer—on the first day of school she's tan, confident, and full of stories about her new dreamy boyfriend. Tori knows that she's totally making this guy up. So Tori invents her own fake boyfriend, who is better than Sienna's in every way. Things are going great—unless you count the whole lying-to-your-best-friend thing—until everyone insists Tori and Sienna bring their boyfriends to the back-to-school dance.

Ratings and reviews

Most tween girls will be able to identify with this. Middle school is the age when kids are trying to compete with their best friends. Tori and Sienna have been best friends for years. This year things have changed. Sienna stopped calling Torie in the middle of the summer. When Sienna returns her hair is different, she is tanned and she claims she has a boyfriend. Not to be outdone by a best friend who didn’t tell her about the boyfriend, and believing Sienna is lying, Tori claims to have a boyfriend too. Things get out of hand real quick and Tori learns what real friendship is. I did enjoy this eventhough I didn’t think I woul

Love this book! It reminds me of me and my Best friend.
