Bookroo's summary
Ruby craves acceptance from her friends, Yaz and Keya, more than kindness towards the new girl, Nelly. As she joins in mocking Nelly, Ruby finds herself trapped in a whirlwind of mean behavior. The stakes rise as Ruby's actions threaten to define her. Will she find the courage to break free from this destructive cycle and choose compassion over popularity? Discover Ruby's journey as she navigates the turbulent waters of friendship and self-discovery, where every choice could change everything.
From the publisher
Ruby wants her friends to like her more than she wants to be nice to the new girl at school.Once Ruby starts being mean to the new girl, Nelly, she can’t stop. She likes being part of Yaz and Keya’s group, so she also makes fun of Nelly and hurts her feelings. It’s like Ruby’s on an out-of-control roller coaster, but it’s up to her to stop the ride.
