Most of all, Thornburgh's exploration of the power of social comedies and books by and about young women--works often deemed insignificant--shines. A funny, beguiling story of sisterhood, burgeoning self-awareness, and first love."--<em>Publishers Weekly</em> <strong>(starred review)</strong><br><br>"The sisters' relationship--what pulls them apart, what draws them together--is the story's beating heart. A well-told, universally human tale about teens discovering who they are, where they want to go, and how to get there. Wise, funny, [and a] thoroughly contemporary coming-of-age tale."--<em>Kirkus Reviews </em><strong>(starred review)</strong><br><br>"The author of <em>Who's That Girl, </em>Thornburgh offers a story that's as witty, intelligent, and perceptive as its narrator. A rewarding novel that revolves around change, reflection, and, yes, sisterhood."--ALA <em>Booklist </em><strong>(starred review)</strong><br><br>"A consistent joy for lovers of well-wroutght, understated prose."--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books<br><br>"Thornburgh's novel offers a charming riff on <em>Sense and Sensibility</em>. Readers will happily lose themselves in the warmly realistic family dynamics, the sisters' laugh-out-loud banter, and the sweet, low-key romance. A smart, character-driven contemporary novel with a timeless feel. Highly recommended for all collections."--School Library Journal<br>
