With practical advice for how to fearlessly stand your ground, hold your own, and dictate your own happiness, Girl World will help you move beyond the bad attitudes and transform your insecurities into strengths. From friendship conflicts to the ugly side to social media, learn how to ditch the drama and kick your inner critic to the curb so you can truly start appreciating yourself. Every day is a new day. Embrace it! Review "Ditch the drama and find your inner amazing with Patricia Ottaviano's Girl World, a step-by-step big sisterly guide to rising above the doubts that haunt us girls. And after all...as the founder of the nonprofit organization Sister Soldier: Stand Up for Each Other, a school assembly and empowerment program for girls, it's safe to say Trish knows what's up." - Justine Magazine "The author covers dealing with face-to-face encounters, social media, and one's own thoughts...This spunky, encouraging tome will brighten the shelves of the teen self-help section" - School Library Journal "Easy to read and written in a conversational style, Ottaviano's advice is all about loving yourself, seeing how incredible those around you really are, and identifying true friendships...it's hard not to cheer her fight to get girls to see what a good friendship looks like and assure them that they do have something to offer. A good choice for teens looking for some inspiration and guidance." - Booklist Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved. 1 YOU'RE IN―BUT ARE YOU? We all have days that are so amazing that we want to freeze time to enjoy them―and then relive them over and over. There are also, inevitably, those horrible days that we just want to forget. A lot of what makes a day good or bad depends on the people around us, the girls in our innermost circle. REWIND TO ONE OF THE BEST DAYS OF SCHOOL: You are seated at a lunch table with your friends, sharing stories, catching up on the latest news, cracking jokes... this is, hands down, the best part of the school day. There is a special kind of comfort in these friendships. You laugh hysterically at inside jokes, whisper about crushes, swap secrets, and cheer each other on. You share interests, hobbies, clothes...pretty much everything. You may even bond over insecurities or mutual dislike of certain people, which makes you feel even closer because you guys get each other. The bond between you is seemingly unbreakable. Finding this solid group of girls was definitely a highlight of your school experience. Before you know it, you're attached at the hip. You've made your friends for life. Until that one time... FAST-FORWARD TO ONE OF THE WORST DAYS OF SCHOOL: You get the feeling that there's something off about the dynamics in your group. You can't quite put your finger on it, but it seems as though your friends are acting different toward you. Your mind does a quick replay of the past week, but nothing stands out. So why is everyone being weird? No one is coming out and saying what's wrong, but you definitely get the vibe that something is up. You love your friends, though you've seen them do some not-so-nice things to other classmates, and you may have even participated at times. You know they secretly don't like Sophie and are just pretending to be her friend. You witnessed the all-out bash-fest they had when Alexa was home sick the other week, and you've definitely heard their true feelings about Catherine's profile picture. You know that, at one time or another, various girls have been the target of gossip and rumors, but you have never been on the receiving end of it. So you ignore, deny, and justify your friends' point of view. Y
