Be That Way

Hope Larson

It is 1996, and seventeen-year-old high school junior Christine begins keeping a journal through a consequential year. She feels unnoticed beside her striking best friend, Landry, and wants to become the kind of cool person others recognize. While recording her efforts to find her own sense of shine, Christine navigates difficult friendships and looks for love. Her journal follows her attempt to shape a path that feels like her own rather than living in Landry’s shadow.
