Quick Summary
If you've ever felt like you have to pretend to be someone you're not just to fit in, this book will totally speak to you. Jo's problem is that all her friends have boyfriends, but she doesn't, so she invents this guy named Vince to impress them only now they want to meet him! It's a funny and sweet story about what happens when a lie gets out of control, and how Jo figures out it's way better to be herself than to keep up a fa ade.
