A smart and funny modern day 13 Going on 30 from New York Times bestselling author Jen Calonita! A tween girl finds out it is like to be 22 when she jumps in time with the help of a mysterious TikTok filter.

Turning 12 1/2 shouldn't be the most exciting birthday in the world. It's a half birthday after all. But Harper is thrilled because she is getting the biggest gift of all: her parent's approval to finally get social media accounts. 
 
Except when she goes to post her first photo, there is a filter she has never heard of before. One that shows you what you will look like when you are older. Curious, Harper clicks on it...but ends up flash forwarding in time to when she is 22. 
 
She will quickly find that being in her twenties means the freedom she always wanted, money for the glow up she didn't know she needed and working for her idol! But Harper soon discovers a lot more has changed than she expected—including the person she wants to be. Will Harper be able to use the filter to get the life of her dreams? Or will there be more glitches?

A half birthday isn't usually a big deal, but for 12-year-old Harper, her dream comes true: her parents finally let her start posting on social media. To Harper, this is the biggest gift she's ever received. 

Profile Picture

Harper is sick of being 12. It seems like everything she wants to do, such as post on Tik-Tok, she isn't allowed until she's 13. But things seem to be turning around on her 12 1/2 birthday celebration. Her parents let her start posting on Tik-Tok early, and the most popular girl in school, Celia, has invited Harper and her best friend Ava to her birthday party. At Celia's party, Harper learns that the only reason she was invited was that her mom helped out with the party.
