PRAISE & ACCOLADES FOR THE
INTERNET GIRLS SERIES
Both revealing and innovative, this novel will inspire teens to pass it to their friends … nonnarrative communication can be a great way to tell a story.
Myracle’s approach is creative … an engaging quick read … readers will cheer.
Myracle cleverly manages to build rich characters and narrative tension without ever taking the story outside of an IM box.
A surprisingly poignant tale of friendship, change, and growth. Perfectly contemporary. ROTFL.
Changing the way you read.
