From the publisher:
Kate Garfield, Queen of the Background is an absolute legend in the category of Nameless Parts in the Ensemble. She and her best friend Anderson Walker are attached at the hip, having spent an incredible summer as junior theater counselors where they pined for the cute camp voice consultant Matt Olsson. Now on their first day back at Roswell Hill High School, they’re eagerly awaiting the announcement of their school’s when their long-distance communal crush Matt walks through the door. Because apparently, he goes there now. Turns out, communal crushes aren’t so fun when real feelings are involved. This one might even bring the curtains down on Kate and Andy’s friendship.
