"Delightful and heartbreaking"
"Her writing is effortlessly readable"
"A novel that tingles with playfulness and wicked observation"
"There are lots of sharp insights on the generation gap, the pseudo-intimacy generated by the internet, and American high-school life; Wolitzer displays perfect comic timing in her awkward chats between jocular teachers and mortified teens"
"Highly entertaining and a serious page-turner. Wolitzer's humour and language create a compelling read"
