YA
Fifteen-year-old Allie has decided to undergo rhinoplasty, encouraged by two girls she met online who also want the surgery. But some unexpected friendships--with a popular girl and a photography-obsessed boy--buoy her confidence, making her reconsider. Though the message is delivered without subtlety by largely oversimplified characters, it's an important one that self-conscious readers may take to heart.
