This book reminded me so much of when I was in school, where you had that one friend you thought would be there through thick and thin only to find out they were fake. That pretty much sums up the relationship between Nat and Mel. They met in grade school when Mel's family moved into town. They sat together on Mel's first day of school and promised each other that they'd be best friends forever.They were inseparable growing up spending as much time together as possible. As they got older, Mel slowly and subtly started to boss Nat around. Mel would constantly rub it in Nat's face how innocent she was and would always tell her how to wear her clothes and her makeup. Then in middle school during their 7th grade  year, an 8th grader named Ash, moved in across the street from Mel's family. She started going to the same school as Nat and Mel and the three became fast friends. Mel could not boss Ash around though because Ash saw through Mel's act and did not put up with her baloney.Mel was pretty much a mean girl and a bully. Poor Nat was oblivious to the fact that Mel was her frenemy. Mel ruined every relationship Nat had with friends or boyfriends that were outside of their trio. Nat was still oblivious and the boyfriends and everyone else could not convince Nat otherwise.Then one day Nat met Miguel and that is when things got interesting. I recommend you read this story. It's a great book that sheds a light on a different type do bully that most never see coming....the frenemy.
