The Starring Veronica by Sarah Kuhn

Praise for the Riverdale Diaries:

New life breathed into old characters...This straightforward, fun story lightly teaches readers to navigate changing friendships and the importance of trying new things even if it means doing it alone. -- Kirkus Reviews

With an engaging storyline and adorable art, The Riverdale Diaries: Hello, Betty features a diverse cast of characters and a relatable protagonist who tries to hold on to her best friend and the stories they created together while starting a new adventure in middle school. -- Rajani LaRocca, Midsummer's Mayhem

When I was a kid, I read my mom's old Pep Comics about the Riverdale gang. Now it's 2020 and thanks to its imaginative publishing (did you ever see the horror graphic novels?) and television programming, Archie Comics has never been stronger. . . . We'll just have to read it if we want to find out if Archie sports his traditional crosshatching or not. -- Betsy Bird, A Fuse #8 Production for School Library Journal

Welcome back to Riverdale Author Sarah Kuhn returns to take middle school's most fabulous diva, Veronica Lodge, through a journey to the most perfect birthday party ever.

Veronica Lodge has always been the most fabulous and popular kid in her class. But ever since she started middle school, she's become a small fish in a much bigger pond. Now, Veronica is terrified her classmates will find out her wealthy dad is out of work. Worse, she has a birthday coming up, and her parties are always huge, grand events. If she can't have a party this year, then everyone will know the truth about her father, and she just can't deal.

When Veronica learns about the annual School Spirit Contest -- which happens to have a cash prize attached -- she makes up her mind to win the contest and use the money to fund her festivities. Her only obstacle is the infuriatingly cool and older Cheryl Blossom, who's handily won the contest two years in a row. Can Veronica save her birthday?

She's Veronica Lodge.

What do you think?

This second volume of the fantastic middle school series done in partnership with Archie Comic Publications, Inc. reunites the fantastic cast of iconic characters reimagined in a new style and setting.

Starring Veronica is for anyone whose parent lost a job, whose birthday was in danger of being canceled, or who just needs to remember how fantastic they really are. Welcome to Riverdale
