My Worst Best Friend is about two best friends who are total opposites.

Gracie is plain, boyish, and smart. She’s got common sense and a good head on her shoulders.

Savanna is beautiful, charming, and manipulative. At the age of 16, she’s already mastered the art of flirting and gets her way 100% of the time.

When Savanna starts dating a college boy, Gracie wants to prove her loyalty as a best friend. So she starts lying constantly for Savanna, and ditches all the important people in her life for her worthless, idiot friend.

Eventually, Gracie finds the courage to stand up for what’s right, and goes after Cooper—an odd yet intelligent, friendly boy.

I didn’t like My Worst Best Friend at all, I thought it was terrible. I couldn’t handle Savanna’s dumb teenage lingo. An example:

But I had this, like, reallyreally stressful day. And I mean reallyreally filled with stress. The stress was packed in there like salmons in a can.

The best parts in My Worst Best Friend are all the parts where Savanna isn’t talked about or mentioned. Unfortunately, these moments are few and far between. I also loved Gracie and Cooper’s ongoing classic movie quote game.

Honestly, you should skip this one. Not worth your time.
