"Deliciously imaginative . . . uproariously funny . . . A book so good, it's hard not to fall back on reviewers' clichés." --The New York Times "A manifesto for everyone who's ever wrestled with the expectations of their family, their friends, and their society (and who hasn't?), and it's ultimately both humane and inspiring." --Boing Boing "A piquant, multilayered coming-of-age fable for the wired generation." --Kirkus Reviews
