Seventh grader Ollie Herisson's dad is a d iplomat\, so their family is always moving for his job. Ollie has already lived in France\, Singapore\, Korea\, Thailand\, and Germany\, and now she and her family are heading to the United States. Ollie doesn't care that her peers think it's weird that she pretends to live in an imagined anime world\, and she doesn't think much about it if she does something embarras sing because she knows before long\, her family will move on to the next p lace. But when her parents suddenly announce their plans to stay in Virgin ia for the foreseeable future so Ollie and her sister\, Cat\, can finish g rade school in one place\, Ollie faces the challenge of making real long-t erm friendships for the first time. In addition\, she struggles with her m other's expectations of being a proper Thai daughter and the growing tensi ons between her parents and her sister.
