As if starting Junior year wasn’t hard enough, try doing it at a new school without any friends. For 16 year old Sophie fitting in proves to be challenging. Things get off to an embarrassing start when mom goes full Karen mode on the school secretary. Being partnered with a pair of sexist guys in marketing class doesn’t make things easier for her - neither does learning about women’s rights when she can’t tell the gender of her study partner. A newfound crush convinces her to join his club - but is he too good to be true? From the trendy divas in her biology class to making friends with the friendliest Taylor Swift fan at school, authenticity proves hard to find. But with all the pressure to fit in, finding the courage to stand out becomes the biggest challenge of all.

Thirteen year old Caroline and her family just moved halfway across the country. Her old life was easy - at her old school she was popular, but now, all this fitting in stuff seems weird. Mom tells her to join clubs. But it's not that easy... Dodgeball team - Ouch! Debate team - Yikes! How about the ABC's (the AntiBullying Committee) - not a chance. A group of desperate losers want her to be in their rap video. Sounds like fun, but does she dare? And when getting too friendly with the chess club nerd threatens her chances with the popular girls it seems she might not fit anywhere. Is she brave enough to stand on her own and be herself?
