This is solid middle-grade fiction that tackles catfishing and digital deception without being a heavy-handed after-school special. Maisie's motivation—being relentlessly bullied about her body—makes her revenge plot understandable even when it's wrong, and that moral complexity is what makes the book work.

The premise feels current and relevant (kids are absolutely creating fake profiles and catfishing each other), and the consequences feel real. When the actual Sienna shows up, things get messy in ways that teach important lessons about online behavior without feeling preachy.

It's not groundbreaking literature, but it's engaging enough to keep middle schoolers reading while delivering genuinely useful digital citizenship lessons. The 4.5-star rating suggests it lands well with its audience. Good choice for kids who need to understand why catfishing is harmful beyond just 'it's wrong because adults said so.'
