Characters live, grow, and ultimately come of age in a beautifully constructed world." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review)"The author expertly illustrates how all moments, little or huge, have an impact on who we are. A wonderfully written peek into adolescence gushing with relatability." -- School Library Journal (starred review)"Mackler keeps all five story lines clear, absorbing, and integral to the larger story of friendship, perseverance, and hope." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review)"The characters' insight, humor, and idiosyncrasies ring true." -- Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA) (starred review)"No one writes more honestly and empathetically about teenage lives than Carolyn Mackler.

I loved getting a peek into their messy, juicy, miserable, wonderful lives, and I loved being reminded that existence itself is all about the tangling of souls." -- Lauren Myracle, New York Times bestselling author of Shine"Carolyn Mackler is a remarkably astute observer of human frailties and hearts. In four interlocking tales of redemption and romance, she reminds us why we're alive and what we might mean to one another if we'd only reach out." -- E.

The various viewpoints weave together to create a compelling and cohesive whole. A story that begs for discussion." -- School Library Journal"The often-hilarious story, which takes place over a four-month period, builds in poignant layers as each character narrates in a fresh, frank voice that defies stereotype. Their insecurities, desires, and questions about family, self-worth, and first love are timeless." -- ALA Booklist
