Mystery of Popularity

She would never admit it, but Elizabeth (Lizzie) Rivers has always wanted a blond ponytail that sways when she walks. Instead, she winds up with a stringy brown clump of hair that can only end up in a messy braid. Shes always wanted a perfectly coordinated outfit, with cute accessories, but she always ends up a few steps behind the latest fashion. Shes not a wannabe, but Elizabeth just doesnt get this popularity business.One fateful day Lizzie, who is perfectly happy with her current friends, winds up palling with Mackenzie, a new student from L.A.! At first Lizzie gets suspicious, but then winds up doing things she would NEVER otherwise do. Such as skipping class, or changing her style. She starts liking it. But not stopping there, Mackenzie has other plans. Shes ready to go extreme- and wont hesitate to get others (including Lizzie) in trouble in the process. Will Lizzies reputation as a good student, and worse, a good friend, be ruined, all thanks to this one girl? Was this a big mistake? Is she still out to solve the mystery of popularity?
