The False Friend by Myla Goldberg

3.0

This book had the potential to be completely gut-wrenching, and at times it reached that level. It touches on the cruelty of pre-teen girls and the lasting scars that they leave on each other, but just never quite embraces it. Many of the characters are so thinly developed that you forget about them after turning the page, which makes it difficult to feel anything but disdain for them and for Celia.
