Media Reviews

"Starred Review. It's refreshing to see these girls counter middle-school drama with silliness rather than angst and hand-wringing. As Cisco and the Bean would say, 'Thank God for being weird.' Ages 12-up." - Publishers Weekly

"Told through the girls' locker notes, lists, and journal entries, this entertaining read features peppy prose, humor, and on-target issues, such as dealing with insecurities, heartbreak, mean girls, and physical-relationship pressures." – Booklist

"Just the ticket for preadolescent girls." - Kirkus Reviews
