Samenvatting:

Fourteen-year-old Betsy Ray is starting a new chapter of her life.

It’s 1906, and her family has moved to a new house, taking her away from her beloved childhood street and her best friend, Tacy. Now, as a freshman in high school, she faces a world of new friends, new challenges, and her very first taste of what it’s like to grow up in a charming small town at the turn of the century.

This classic coming of age story follows Betsy as she navigates a whirlwind of parties, picnics, and boys, all while trying to stay true to her secret dream of becoming a writer. When being popular feels like the most important thing in the world, can she hold on to the things that make her unique? In the second book, Betsy in Spite of Herself, she decides to find out by completely reinventing her personality to become mysterious and alluring. What could possibly go wrong?
