Book of Interest: Be Real, Macy Weaver

It's supposed to a beautiful warm spring day outside today, I think I'll go outside and read. Until then, I wanted to post this middle grade book Be Real, Macy Weaver by Lakita Wilson that I found. I seems interesting with Macy Weaver having a little difficulty making friends. And just when she does make one, Macy ends up telling a few lies to try to make her life seem more interesting and most likely to impress her new friend.

Odds are she'll end up learning a very important life lesson which is to be yourself because trying to be someone else never really works out in the end. This seems like a cute and interesting book that I'd love to read. Unfortunately, it's not released until July.


Book: Be Real, Macy Weaver by Lakita Wilson

Publication Date: July 12, 2022

Description:

A humorous, heartfelt, and fashion-filled middle grade contemporary novel about Macy Weaver, a young girl struggling with how to be her true self and make a best friend—during a tumultuous year when her mom goes back to college. Perfect for fans of From the Desk of Zoe Washington and Stand Up, Yumi Chung.

Eleven-year-old Macy Weaver knows relationships are complicated. Fresh off her latest friendship breakup, she’s spent most of her summer break on her own. So when Macy’s mother decides to go back to college three states away, Macy jumps on the chance to move—anything for a fresh start.

But Macy’s new home isn’t exactly what she expected. Her mother’s never around and her dad’s always working. Lonelier than ever, Macy sets her sights on finding a new best friend. When she meets Brynn, who’s smart and kind and already seems to have her whole life figured out—down to her future as a high fashion model—Macy knows she’s it. The only problem is that Brynn already has a BFF and, as everyone knows, you can only have one.

Resorting to old habits, Macy turns one small lie into a whole new life—full of fantastic fashion and haute couture—but it isn't long before everything really falls apart. Ultimately, Macy must determine how to make things right and be true to herself—rather than chasing after the person she thinks she’s supposed to be.
