The rise and fall of a teenage social climber - Laura Moser

When Mimi moves to the city, she has to change school, and move in with her dad. She develops a crush on her dad's lodger quicker than a blink, until she realises he might just be her dad's boyfriend... And at school she's making similar faux pas. Unsure which clique she should belong to, Mimi tries to play the prim prom queens off against the too cool for school beatniks - and ends up losing out on both. And when she steals the most popular girl in school's boyfriend, there's hell to pay... A coming of age story about friendship and betrayal, about appearances and what lies beneath.
