Sistrsic92 (Meg)

By Cheryl Dellasega

Book Overview

Meg, a.k.a. sistrsic92, can't help having a serious inferiority complex -- you would, too, if you had a sister like T2P2 (The Totally Perfect Person), who can usually be found surrounded by a circle of adoring friends and her ultra-popular boyfriend. But Meg soon learns that she has one thing T2P2 never had -- blog pals who are the VBFs a girl could ever hope for. When Meg's sister develops an eating disorder and reveals to Meg a huge secret, Meg will have to decide how far sisterhood goes and what secrets are worth keeping -- before it's too late. Chronicling the main events throughout are hand drawings by teen-illustrator Tyler Beauford.
