"EARNEST AND LAUGH-OUT-LOUD... PITCH PERFECT."âPublishers Weekly, starred review
Thirteen-year-old Ingridâs been living a double life. At school, sheâs her popular friend Rachelâs charity case. Online, she crushes it in her favorite MMORPG, geeks out in her favorite fantasy fandom, and runs a popular social media account. If only real life were that easy.
But when Ingrid finally stands up to Rachel, it suddenly feels like she has no life at all.
Until she gets a super-sweet wrong-number text from a mystery boy at her school. Spending time together gaming as âStitchesâ and âTravelerâ makes her feel like sheâs really connecting with someone. But when she begins to suspect that Traveler may be a popular classmate who is WAY above her in the cool-kid food chainâand whose original text was actually intended for Rachelâshe faces a difficult choice. Can they be friends IRL? She wants to open up, but getting close to people has hurt her before. Is making real friends only fantasy after all?
Bye Forever, I Guess is the fresh, funny, and deeply sweet middle-grade debut of New York Times bestselling author Jodi Meadows (MY LADY JANE). Speaking to the messiness of middle-school friendships (and first loves), this is a warm, witty, enormously entertaining bookâand a love letter to geek culture, gaming, and the healing power of fantasy.
"HILARIOUS... Charming, funny, and endearing."âKirkus Reviews
"The most DELIGHTFUL middle-grade romcom I've ever read!"âEllen Oh, award-winning author of Finding Junie Kim
