"Numerous laugh-aloud moments don't lessen the potency of the story's messages about beauty's subjectivity and overcoming fears. Readers will gleefully cheer Jolie on as she learns to appreciate herself for who she is."-- Publishers Weekly , starred review " The author has a light touch with heavy topics and has crafted a funny and relatable lead, well-developed secondary characters, and great story lines. This is a brisk read with real insight into friendships and young romance. Readers will want to spend their time with Jolie, her family, and her friends. "- School Library Journal "In her quirky sophomore novel, Winfrey ( Love and Other Alien Experiences, 2017) offers up a story about self-acceptance that's rich with humor and heart . Jolie's situation may be unique, but this will appeal to anyone who's ever felt out of place."-- Booklist, Love and Other Alien Experiences :"This is a charming take on high school-the friendships, the romance, and the snubs-that also tenderly explores mental illness and the stigmas that accompany it. A sweet and funny debut."- Booklist ". . . This YA version of The Shop around the Corner remains entertaining, and Mallory's quick wit, biting sarcasm, and sardonic narration give it bonus flair. . . Her descriptions of the panic when it does hit are dead on, though, and the very real pain she's in comes through with palpable intensity."- BCCB, "Numerous laugh-aloud moments don't lessen the potency of the story's messages about beauty's subjectivity and overcoming fears.
