About this ebook

Pippa Morgan's bff has moved away, and Pippa's totally distraught. So when cool girl Catie moves to town, Pippa will do anything to get her attention and friendship—including telling Catie that she's a singing superstar (which couldn't be farther from the truth). One fib leads to another, and before she knows it, Pippa's in way over her head…

Pippa's new BFF Catie Brown is perfect. So perfect, that Pippa tells her a teeny tiny lie—that she once auditioned for Voice Factor—to impress her. And it works. It works so well, in fact, that Catie enters Pippa into the school talent show.

The only problem? Pippa can't sing. Not at all. In fact, her singing is so bad it scares the neighbors. But if she doesn't participate in the talent show, Catie will know she lied. But if she does participate, the whole school will find out what a horrible singer she is...including Catie!

It's up to Pippa to put an end to this pesky problem!

    Top ten reasons why Catie and I are BFFs

    YOLO by Tiffany J

    Back Cover

    ALL ABOUT ME

    Name: Pippa Jane Saturday Rachel Morgan

    (My parents only gave me the middle name Jane, but I added the other two because I think it’s really unfair that we don’t get to choose our own names. I mean, we’re the ones who have to have them for our ENTIRE LIVES! I chose Saturday because it’s my favorite day of the week and Rachel because that’s the name of my BFF.)

    Age: 10 (which is really cool because ten is my favorite number in the whole world—apart from infinity—but I don’t think I’ll ever get to age infinity!)

    Height: Half a forehead taller than the hallway shelf. (I know this because I accidentally walked into the hallway shelf last week and it made a bruise right in the middle of my forehead. I didn’t mind though because the bruise looked a little like the Batman symbol.)

    Favorite Color: Indigo (I’m not exactly sure what color indigo is—it just sounds really cool. Try saying it out loud and see: IN-DI-GO!)

    Favorite Pop Star: Tiffany J!!!

    Favorite Song: YOLO by Tiffany J.

    Favorite Food: Chicken nuggets and Dad’s homemade pizza.

    When I grow up I want to be: An acrobatic dancer. Or a spy. Or maybe I could be an acrobatic dancer who spies? I could spy on all the people in the audience at my shows.

    *swallows back tears* Yesterday, at 11:32 a.m., my best friend of all time, Rachel Adams, moved to the other end of the world.

    Have you ever lost your best friend? Well, don’t. It’s the WORST.

    Mom gave me this diary.

    She said writing stuff down would help me process my feelings of loss.

    ???

    Writing stuff down is basically homework, but here goes…

    Sunday

    I can still smell the stink of the moving van. Rachel and I just hugged and cried as they loaded her stuff on. Then I watched like a big-eyed kid who’d just lost her puppy while Rachel waved out of the window of her parents’ car.

    I will NEVER forgive Rachel’s parents—I STILL CAN’T BELIEVE THEY DECIDED THAT RACHEL SHOULD LIVE IN SCOTLAND INSTEAD OF THREE DOORS AWAY FROM ME!

    Scotland is, like, a gazillion miles away.

    Rachel said Nothing Would Change Really. *rolls eyes* She said, We’ll still be best friends even though I’m so far away. I love Rachel but sometimes she can be one fry short of a Happy Meal.

    Of course we’ll be best friends. But it’s not the same.
