“If there’s one thing Sophia Rossi understands completely–it’s besties. Only an ultimate BFF like Sophia could create the super-special bond that Harper and Lily have in A TALE OF TWO BESTIES.” —Lauren Conrad “Plumbing the depths of friendship and cliques, this debut novel will speak to fans of Rossi’s popular website, HelloGiggles, as well as all girls trying to discover their own identity while learning what it means to really be friends.” —Booklist*Featuring a foreword by 'New Girl' star Zooey Deschanel*Perfect for fans of Kody Keplinger's The DUFF and Morgan Matson's Since You've Been Gone, the delightfully funny debut novel A TALE OF TWO BESTIES is full of giggles and surprises. Best friends. BFFs. Soul twinsies. Whatever you want to call them, Harper and Lily were born to be besties. With high school just around the corner, casual-cool Cali girl Harper and awkward, always-costumed Lily make sure to text each other every day about their bond:   Harper: I love you so much that I am going to sneak out of detention to pay that guy from Craigslist $100 to cut off all your hair for my secret collection. Lily: I love you so much I’m going destroy everyone in your life that matters and force you to depend and love only me. Harper: That sounds beautiful. I love you.   Not even the threat of different high schools could throw this BFFship off-course, even if Lily begs her parents not to send her to the “dreaded Pathways," a special school for creative types, while effortlessly-popular Harper attends Beverly High with the rest of their class.   But in a city where fitting in means standing out and there’s nothing more uncool than being cool, it’s the naturally charismatic Harper--with her blond hair and perfect bone structure--who finds herself fighting the tide of American Apparel’d teens who rule the school. Meanwhile, it’s the perpetually “gawkward” Lily--who accessories every ensemble with a pair of tattered fairy wings--who finds herself flying alongside the queen bees of Pathways. Can BFF-ship survive the tidal wave of HS drama, or does growing up mean leaving some friends behind? “It's like my twins stepped out of the eighties and dropped down into today. Deliciously funny with heart.” – Francine Pascal, bestselling author and creator of the Sweet Valley High series

A Tale of Two Besties: A Hello Giggles Novel, by Sophia Rossi

From School Library Journal Gr 7–10—The satisfactory story of two besties charts the emotional ups and downs of freshman year of high school, with a heavy-handed dose of consumer label name dropping. Together since fourth grade, Lily and Harper are BFFs who begin their freshman year in different schools. Lily has always been the outsider and Harper the popular one. When the year begins, their roles are reversed and each has difficulty navigating their changed status. Always unique, Lily wears fairy wings and marches to the beat of her own drum. At her new creative school, she immediately hits it off with the in-crowd, becoming a fashion trendsetter. Harper, usually the quintessential popular California girl, starts off her freshman year with detention and soon after becomes the star of an embarrassing viral video. At a time when the two girls need each other the most, they just can't connect. There are touching moments, and the dialogue feels genuine. However, secondary characters, with the notable exception of Lily's former and Harper's current love interest Tim, seem mostly two-dimensional, created to represent an archetype. Only the two best friends are fully formed. This creates a problem because the bulk of the action takes place when the two main characters are separated. As in most light friendship stories, the friends are somewhat unrealistically reunited in the end. VERDICT A serviceable novel that will appeal to young teens looking for a light and frothy friendship tale.—Cindy Wall, Southington Library & Museum, CT

3 of 3 people found the following review helpful. I really wanted to love this one By caripao I really wanted to love this one. It sounds so fun! And I love stories about best friends! But, even though the reading experience was fun, I couldn't connect with A Tale of Two Besties.I think the issue really comes down to age. I'm too old for this story, which makes perfect sense since the demographic probably falls somewhere between middle to high schoolers. Also, the author loves to name drop---like every few sentences. I guess this might serve as a way to attach the novel to the new generation but I don't know if I enjoyed it. Honestly, I didn't always get what she was talking about (again, I'm old) so it annoyed me more often than not. One thing that I actually liked were the messages between Lily and Harper. They are quirky and remind me that there's nothing better than being your geeky self with your best friend. I love that this is a story about two female characters since there are so few available for younger teens. That being said, I'm a little sad that this didn't exist when I was in middle school. I think I would've liked it a lot more then.I think you should skip this one if you're over 16. However, if you have a little sister/cousin/etc or if you're about to start high school, this novel is definitely for you!

Rossi's 'A Tale of Two Besties' is such a funny, such a feel-good read By Gina Sophia Rossi's 'A Tale of Two Besties' is such a funny, such a feel-good read. It took me a total of two days to read it; I actually, PHYSICALLY couldn't put it down. The story of Harper and Lily reminded me so much of my teenhood/middle school experience with my BFF. This book is also just super fun to read —it's written in both linear and text message format, so it feels super immediate, like you're there with the girls. I would recommend this to anyone who wanted a sweet, funny read about two best friends growing up. Be prepared to feel some feelings! :)
