Bookroo's summary
Alexis feels adrift when her best friend Emma leaves for a trip, leaving her feeling like a third wheel with Mia and Katie. When Ava visits, Katie feels the same way. As friendships shift, the girls discover that, like cupcakes, you can never have too many friends. Will they embrace the new dynamics and find a way to include everyone?
From the publisher
Alexis thinks the Cupcake Club feels incomplete–until she discovers that friendship comes in many flavors. Alexis feels lonely and left out when Emma goes away on a family trip. Sure, Mia and Katie are her friends too, but without her BFF Emma to round out the group, Alexis feels like a third wheel. Then when Ava comes to visit Mia, Katie is the one who feels like she just lost her best friend. Eventually all the girls realize friends are like cupcakes–you can never have too many!
