Roller Girl by Victoria Jamieson

Astrid and Nicole are best friends but separate hobbies cause the pair to split ways as Nicole prefers ballet over Astrid's admiration for the roller derby girls especially her idol Rainbow Brite.

As Astrid settles into Derby camp, she has to find the courage to not give up, make new friends such as, Zoey after Rachel her enemy steals Nicole away at ballet camp.

From becoming a new roller derby self dubbed Asteroid, she dyed her hair becoming bolder as she discovers herself over the course of the novel. All about growing up, acceptance and learning the way friendships can play out, it's certainly an inspiring and awe inducing read.
