We read most of it together, a couple of chapters per night, before she ran out on it - but I finished it myself because by that time, I had to know what happened. My 6yo daughter found this book in the library and wanted it based on the cover. Lynn's life and privacy are suddenly exposed to all, but she manages to keep her friendship with Taylor and a new friend Grace intact and meets a cute guy who likes her just as she is.

Along the way, Lynn learns that her own brother Dex has taken photos of her outfits to show to cute girls who might not have otherwise paid him any attention and that blogs about her and her designs have sprouted up (and they're not always complimentary). When Lynn's models bail out on her, Taylor and other friends come to the rescue (including a surprise visit from Valentina who helps Lynn fit the models and opens the show for Lynn). Suddenly, everyone, including the snobby popular girls who had made fun of Lynn, want to be her friend! The book includes a trip to NY for Lynn to meet with Valentina and concludes with a fashion show at the high school for charity. Lynn is named the Glitter Girl magazine's IT girl (an even better honor than being named to the style panel). Thanks to Lynn's faithful friend Taylor, who took a video of Lynn and her shoes, Taylor arranges for a videoconference between Valentina and Lynn. Things couldn't seem to get worse after Lynn wants to walk past Valentina to get a better look at her, and her shoe flies off and into Valentina's meal! What happens next is a search for the creator of the shoe in a modern twist on the Cinderalla story. Ducking into a deli at the mall afterwards, Lynn spies fashion designer Valentina eating lunch. Unfortunately, the line is long at the mall, and when Lynn leaves briefly to use the restroom, she loses her chance to interview for the style panel.

When there's an open call for girls to participate on a panel that provides fashion and style advice in their small Pennsylvania town, Lynn is motivated to create a special outfit complete with shoes she designed herself. Her best friend Taylor sticks by her and relies on her for fashion advice. Lynn Vincent realizes she's not like other kids in her approach to fashion and is often the butt of jokes. Lynn Visible is about a young girl entering high school and the challenges she faces.
