This was great and even dug deep on some parts. This book tackled childhood trauma and depression and a, at the time, forbidden

lesbian

romance in a way that was palatable for children. I’m seriously pleasantly surprised with this book! 

Cici’s just turned twelve and is maturing in a lot of ways. She and her friends are in middle school and everything is changing. Even though Cici and her mom have better communication these days, she still can’t help wanting to solve everyone’s problems—while ignoring her own. 

I don’t know if there will be more to this series, but it ended very well here, in my opinion.
