"Kind of a Big Deal" by Amanda Dolan follows the story of a high school senior named Ellery, who has spent her whole life in the shadow of her popular, perfect older sister. As graduation approaches, Ellery decides to shed her timid reputation and reinvent herself. She finds new friendships and discovers her passions, particularly in theater. With the help of an eccentric group of misfits, Ellery embarks on a journey of self-discovery, learning to embrace her uniqueness and stand up for herself. Along the way, she encounters romance, rivalry, and the challenge of defining her own identity apart from her sister’s legacy. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
