Lara has met a new boy called Caiden, in a panic to make him like her she and her friends decide to give themselves "Glow ups."
She is so sure this will work and he will instantly fall for her.
Just average old Lara, clumsy, awkward in everything except her beloved football.
She confides all these hopes and dreams to her journal, her insecurities and low feelings of self worth.
But being so sure her life is on track with her glow up, she feels nothing can go wrong with her plans.
But when it does is she ready for the fall out?
This was a fun, socially conscious book aimed at teens and deals with a myriad of social issues and themes that affect teens today, bullying, cyber security, peer pressure and above all the feeling that they have to improve themselves to be popular.
When the main character doesn't understand she is fine as she is and people actually DO appreciate her without any dramatic changes.
A fun yet also quite serious read.
