Friends Like Us: Pearl by Jenny McLachlan

Pearl has never cared to be nice. In fact, pretty much everyone agrees she’s the exact opposite. Only her oldest friends – Bea, Betty, and Kat – see her better side. It’s no secret that Pearl loves to be the centre of attention, so with a starring role in the school production of Romeo & Juliet up for grabs, Pearl does everything she can to win it. Then new girl Hoshi arrives. Hoshi is beautiful, effortlessly charming, and even nice! Naturally, she immediately is cast as Juliet. How will Pearl get revenge! One of four connected books about best friends – don’t miss the rest of the Friends Like Us Series: Bea, Betty and Kat. *Note: This book was originally published with the title Star Struck. Perfect for Lottie Brooks fans.
