description: Best friends big fans a mysterious webcomic and a long-lost girl collide in this riveting novel perfect for fans of both Cory Doctorow and Sarah Dessen; illustrated throughout with comics.Once upon a time two best friends created a princess together. Libby drew the pictures May wrote the tales and their heroine Princess X slayed all the dragons and scaled all the mountains their imaginations could conjure. Once upon a few years later Libby was in the car with her mom driving across the Ballard Bridge on a rainy night. When the car went over the side Libby passed away and Princess X died with her. Once upon a now: May is sixteen and lonely wandering the streets of Seattle when she sees a sticker slapped in a corner window. Princess X? When May looks around she sees the Princess everywhere: Stickers. Patches. Graffiti. There's an entire underground culture focused around a webcomic at IAmPrincessX.com. The more May explores the webcomic the more she sees disturbing similarities between Libby's story and Princess X online. And that means that only one person could have started this phenomenon---her best friend Libby who lives.
