Editorial Reviews

Review

“The stories are raw and funny-sad, and they capture with perfect pitch the impossible exhilaration, the inevitable downbeat-ness, and the pure confusion of being an adolescent.”—Elle

“Spare and riveting… Franco’s ear for juvenile vernacular is like an Ouija board summoning the lost voices of Generation Z.”—
O, the Oprah Magazine

"Compelling and gutsy.”—Meghan O’Grady,
Vogue

“Startling and original.”—
The Economist

“[Franco] ends up perfectly mirroring the undulations of a teenage mind.”—
The New York Times Book Review
