- I bought THE NO GIRLFRIEND RULE on a whim and I’m so glad I did! This book is a love letter to many things: nerdy girls, fat girls, anxious girls, arty girls, queer girls, girl friends and girlfriends.
- Hollis is now one of my all time favorite YA protagonists. Her growth over the course of the story felt real, and I’m so glad it exists in the world. Hollis is here to tell girls they don’t have to put up with gross nonsense, ever.
- I’ve never played D&D and still had no trouble following the game scenes, and even found myself on the edge of my seat during a few battles.
