Recenzii
"Smart, bold, heartbreaking — sophisticated teen readers will be wowed." — Kirkus, starred review
"An engaging story and strong purchase with some valuable lessons about love, friendship, and growing up." — School Library Journal, starred review
". . . perfectly planted in the sweet spot of YA writing. It's good for the smart literary teen and the teen who plows through salacious bestsellers. It's also for the adult who wants to remember how hard and how beautiful it was to be a teenager. This one is highly recommended." — Quill & Quire, starred review
