Okay, this might be a weird suggestion but I would suggest to her that she get into more typically male self-help so that she can develop her masculine side in a positive way.
The problem with feminity is that it gets abused by toxic masculinity. If a girl has no positive protectors/mentors then she has to protect herself and guide/teach herself which requires masculine energy.
Sounds to me like she needs to learn what she wants in life and how to stand up for herself before she doubles down on the bitter attitude.
As for book recommendations, can't go wrong with Dale Carnegie, here's a Teen Girl version that I read actually, it's pretty good.
I'm so happy for you. And I would like to thank you as well, because being able to use my former misery to give good advice makes it better. :)
Now, don't relax just yet. At this point, you need to make a calendar and start preparing yourself and your environment for a good public school experience for yourself. (A good experience is not automatic, but you can guide it into being if you're aware of the potential pitfalls.) Create a notebook/digital folder of documents/some combination of note-taking tools, and start gathering information:
(I stayed in a frat house once and a relative told me to take an extra microwave that we had laying around the house with me. The ad I had answered had specified that the house had weekly cleaning so I didn't see the point, but I took the microwave and I was so glad I did. Their kitchen was disgusting and was never cleaned during the three months I lived there. I was able to eat cheaply and healthily only because I had that microwave.)
You have your mother, which is great, but I also highly recommend finding an individual who can help you with the awareness that comes with age and experience in the context of school. (It should be a teacher, religious official (maybe), professional, some adult who has a context in which they can help you ie not just some random person. Also, you need to be aware that that is an extraordinary relationship and sometimes bad people or controlling people take advantage of those. Be careful.

The first two have gendered titles, but everyone could stand to have that information. Pay attention to the chapters on boundaries and on how you can't win an argument. The third is just a good intro to some of the basics that will be helpful to develop in yourself as you grow up.
As always, read everything skeptically and if something doesn't make sense, ask for a clarification. Good luck! Update if you can. I'm really happy for you, just don't rest quite yet.
Edit: Thanks for the silver!
And because I thought of something else:
8,b) I am not qualified to recommend this, but I would recommend that you give yourself a basic education about LGBTQIA and gender issues. You're about to do a whole lot of growing among other people who are also growing. I don't know if this will ever be personally relevant to you, but being able to empathize with and function around anyone you meet is a valuable skill. Look for books aimed at teens and read them skeptically and with empathy and in context, like everyone should read everything.
