Summary
What happens to best friends when one of them gets a boyfriend? Gloria and Shawna are about to start high school, but they still enjoy acting out their fantasy futures with cut-throat games of Barbie. Even in their real-life plans it's always bossy, doll-faced Shawna who gets the boyfriend first. And then she'll make him bring a friend for Gloria, and then they'll double-date and rule the school. But when school begins, it's Gloria who catches the eye of Marc, the hottest boy in grade nine. And she quickly discovers how difficult it is to juggle a jealous friend and a romance. A smart, sassy and deadly accurate depiction of every girl's dream-nightmare come true.
