The Mystery of Popularity

<p>She would never admit it but Elizabeth (Lizzie) Rivers has always wanted a blond ponytail that sways when she walks. Instead she winds up with a stringy brown clump of hair that can only end up in a messy braid. She’s always wanted a perfectly coordinated outfit with cute accessories but she always ends up a few steps behind the latest fashion. She’s not a wannabe but Elizabeth just doesn’t get this popularity business.</p> <p>One fateful day Lizzie who is perfectly happy with her current friends winds up palling with Mackenzie a new student from L.A.! At first Lizzie gets suspicious but then winds up doing things she would NEVER otherwise do. Such as skipping class or changing her style. She starts liking it. But not stopping there Mackenzie has other plans. She’s ready to go extreme- and won’t hesitate to get others (including Lizzie) in trouble in the process. Will Lizzie’s reputation as a good student and worse a good friend be ruined all thanks to this one girl? Was this a big mistake? Is she still out to solve the mystery of popularity?</p>
