My friend Amy put it best when she said "I feel like I'm reading one of our notebooks from junior high!" It's true. I related to every silly boy crazed scenario and the young, emerging artist drawing style. The story was appropriated from a found diary, and my only complaint is that I wanted to know what happened in some situations and she was already bouncing on to the next big drama. I am going to recommend this to all my non-reader friends in hopes that they will start to love graphic novels as much as I do. Hooray Esther Pearl Watson!

I purchased this on a whim because of the interesting premise and devoured the whole thing in a flash. This series perfectly captures all of the obsessions, exaggerations, awkward moments, and intense emotions that comes with being a teen. I laughed. I squirmed. Long-buried, painful memories of my own childhood floated to the surface. I laughed some more. A unique read - glad I picked it up!
