Reach for this book if you notice your teen becoming increasingly preoccupied with social media metrics, digital validation, or the curated lives of influencers. It is a timely exploration of the addictive nature of fame and the erosion of privacy in our hyper-connected world.

Parents will find this an excellent tool for opening a dialogue about digital footprints, the difference between public image and private self, and the ethical lines one might cross for a moment in the spotlight. It serves as a grounded reality check for any teen who feels they are falling behind in the race for digital relevance.
