"coming of age in the 80's. girl wants to live, wants to be someone, wants to be cool, so she latches on to the first group who treats her like she matters. she builds her life up, builds up a person she thinks everyone will love and think is cool. the lesson is to be true to yourself is the coolest thing of all"

"I almost didn’t make it past a cringe-y part in the beginning but I’m so glad I did. Watching this young woman find herself and her confidence, bend to fit in and reconcile the world around her with who she is was powerful. Recommend!"
