Warhol-obsessed Piper will have readers asking big questions along with her. What is love? What is friendship? What is family? What should I wear? <p/>Piper Perish inhales air and exhales art. The sooner she and her best friends can get out of Houston and get to New York City, the better. Art school has been Piper's dream forever, and now that senior year is halfway over, she's never felt more ready. But in the final months before graduation, things are weird with her friends and stressful with three different guys, and Piper's sister's tyranny thwarts every attempt at happiness for the Perish family. Piper's art just might be enough to get her out. But is she brave enough to seize that power when it means giving up so much?<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>A character readers will remember.-Kirkus Reviews<br><br>A great read for creative adults or teenagers who are on the precipice of becoming who they're meant to be.--<i>Read it Forward</i><br><br>A love-letter to the artistic life, filled with glamour, passion, hunger and heartbreak. - author, graphic novelist, and two-time Eisner Award Winner Hope Larson<br><br>A smart, complicated, emotionally mature, coming-of-age story that leaps off the page and reminds you why you ever dared to dream.
