Description - Well, That Was Awkward by Rachel Vail

Gracie has a crush on A.J., but when she finds out that A.J. likes her best friend Sienna, she decides that the two are perfectly suited and her role as sidekick will be to help Sienna write clever texts that will dazzle A.J. To her surprise, A.J.'s texts prove to be surprisingly smart and witty. Could it be that he is getting help from his brainy best friend Emmett? There's many a twist and turn before the real perfect couple get together!

Set in the tumultuous world of eighth grade, Rachel Vail's delightful take on Cyrano de Bergerac is laugh-out-loud funny, but also perceptive and touching.

Gracie has never felt like this before. One day, she suddenly can't breathe, can't walk,can't anything-and the reason is standing right there in front of her, all tall and weirdly good-looking- A.J.

But it turns out A.J. likes not Gracie but Gracie's beautiful best friend, Sienna. Obviously Gracie is happy for Sienna. Super happy! She helps Sienna compose the best texts, responding to A.J.'s surprisingly funny and appealing texts, just as if she were Sienna. Because Gracie is fine. Always! She's had lots of practice being the sidekick, second-best.

It's all good. Well, almost all. She's trying.

Funny and tender, Well, That Was Awkward goes deep into the heart of middle school, and finds that even with all the heartbreak, there can be explosions of hope and moments of perfecthappiness.
