Perfect for fans of Star Fish and From the Desk of Zoe Washington, a nuanced middle grade from the author of The Prettiest about two girls--one bad and one good--who join forces against book banning and censorship.

Rose is a good girl. She listens to her parents and follows every rule. After all, rules are there for a reason . . . right? And adults always know best.

Talia, the new girl from New York City, doesn't think so. After only a week at school, Talia--who does what she wants, when she wants--is already making enemies. First on the list: Charlotte, Rose's lifelong best friend.

So why can't Rose stop wondering what it would be like to be Talia's friend? And why does Rose read a banned book that Talia recommends? Rose doesn't know. But the forbidden book makes her ask questions she's never thought of. When Talia suggests they start a banned books club, how can Rose say no?

Pushing against her parents, her school, and even Charlotte opens a new world for Rose. But when Talia's escapades become more scary than exciting, Rose must decide when it's right to keep quiet and when it's time to speak out.

A great pick for middle grade reading lists and book clubs!
