This is very much one for the teenagers, containing as it does lots of emojis, text message exchanges and changes in font - not to mention no shortage of capital letters - within the diary format (which for the first few pages is handwritten before switching to an electronic journal for the rest of the book). Nor will anyone who wishes to buy or borrow the book have much difficulty in spotting it on the bookshelf thanks to the brightly coloured front cover, which is very much in keeping with the theme of the tale.
The story concerns the title character Lara Bloom, who decides to give herself the ultimate glow up when the new boy Caiden arrives at her school. But will her efforts (and the help of her friends) be enough to win his heart, and will it prove to be wise for Lara to pour all her thoughts into what is supposed to be her secret online journal?
