An earthy, realistic and compelling depiction of teenage relationships and self-image
Edgy and compelling. I couldn't put it down!
Written when the author herself was just 17, this debut novel has a bluntly honest edge ... compulsive reading, with a sassy heroine you'll find yourself rooting for against all the odds
An interesting and enjoyable read

Kody Keplinger breathed some new life into the now horribly cliched idea of a love triangle by writing realistically flawed characters ... hilarious
Realistic, yet innocent at the same time.
Sharp, hot, thoughtful, and searingly honest, The Duff is one of the best young adult novels to come along in a decade.
An interesting and enjoyable read.
A well written, irreverent, and heartfelt debut.
