Description - Unfriended by Rachel Vail

UNFRIENDED follows a group of 8th graders through the upheavals of social life in the hyper-connected present day reality of a middle class middle school. Natasha invites Truly to join the Popular Table, but she soon regrets doing so when Truly displaces her in the attention of adorable Clay, and even worse, of Brooke, the ultracool arbiter of who stays and who is unfriended. Natasha is soon unfriended, and vows revenge. Told in alternating voices, the tone is funny and light, as the reader moves from one unreliable narrator to the next, each one having only a limited perspective. Ultimately, only the reader knows what's really happening.

In middle school, nothing is more important than friendship.

When Truly is invited to sit at the Popular Table with the group she has dreamed of joining, she can hardly believe her luck. Everyone seems so nice, so kind to one another. But all is not as it seems with her new friends, and soon she's caught in a maelstrom of lies, misunderstandings, accusations and counter-accusations, all happening very publicly in the relentless, hyperconnected social media world from which there is no escape.

Six eighth-graders, four girls and two boys, struggle to understand and process their fractured glimples into one another's lives as they find new ways to disconnect, but also to connect, in Rachel Vail's richest and most searching book.
