Book Description
There’s a new girl in town—and a new friend for Ida May: “A satisfying read, especially for fans of Sara Pennypacker’s Clementine series.”—Booklist After Ida May’s last best friend moved away, she swore she’d never have another. But then she met fun, sparkly Stacey Merriweather, and now she and Ida are like two peas in a pod. When the friends discover a magical mermaid night-light that seems to grant wishes, they start a secret club—just the two of them. Ida uses the mermaid to make something bad happen to Jenna, the mean girl in class. Then Stacey uses the mermaid to undo a scheduled math test. The more they put the mermaid’s powers to use, the more they need to help it along by manipulating the truth with their “highly creative stories”… Ida goes along with all the lies at first. But soon, Ida suspects that Stacey is using the mermaid to tell some bigger lies…and to cause some big trouble at home. And soon Ida feels caught between telling the truth and hurting her friendship with Stacey. How will Ida set the record straight while still keeping her new best friend? “Bowe is spot-on with Ida May's feelings....The unexpected twist is believable and satisfying. Fans of Ida May will be overjoyed.”—Kirkus Reviews

After ten years of hard work the day of her big promotion has arrived. Unfortunately, her company has other ideas. Instead of a corner office, Jessie is handed her pink slip. Left with little more than her cell phone and an unusable contact list, Jessie retreats to less-than-fashionable Hoboken, New Jersey, to figure out her life—and deal with the attentions of her loving but inquisitive Italian-American family. Then she accidentally stumbles into a career as a professional best friend—by helping friends and strangers straighten out whatever is wrong with their lives. Her jobs include planning the New Jersey wedding of the year and saving a bankrupt rock club in town. Soon, things get complicated when she falls in love with the club manager—and promises an appearance by Bruce Springsteen. In the end, Jessie realizes that not even “The Boss” can make things right—and that she needs to become her own best friend to be truly happy.
