Review Quotes: "It's clear that the author cares deeply about her characters, and she gives their lines density and, frequently, a heavy nostalgic feeling. Teens will welcome the unfiltered dialogue....Chase is a sympathetic protagonist who, like many teens, is on a quest for connection and understanding....Readers will...embrace Moskowitz's introspective characters and the dramatic situations in which they find themselves." -SLJ
