“Some of the stories—Lauren Weinstein’s horrible time at horseback-riding camp, Daniel Clowes’ detached memories of summer with his grandparents—are hilarious. Others, like Eric Enright’s tale of self-hatred, remind us that the concerns of junior high are often far from funny. Schrag cleverly plays up this contrast by alternating the stories, suggesting the mood swings of adolescence itself…by and large it is excellentâ€- Ned Vizzini, The New York Times Book Review
