She spends a month pouring her heart out to this blog, telling it secrets about the crushes her friends have, how her arch nemesis Angel Rivera is ruining her life, and about her blossoming friendship with her crush. Then Angel Rivera pulls her worst prank yet ... she steals the password to Libby's blog and posts her secrets all over school. Will Libby ever be able to show her face again? And will her friends ever forgive her?
