Reviews
Kody Keplinger breathed some new life into the now horribly cliched idea of a love triangle by writing realistically flawed characters ... hilarious
An interesting and enjoyable read
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
A well written, irreverent, and heartfelt debut.
An earthy, realistic and compelling depiction of teenage relationships and self-image
Realistic, yet innocent at the same time.
An earthy, realistic and compelling depiction of teenage relationships and self-image.
Compulsive reading, with a sassy heroine you'll find yourself rooting for against all odds.
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.
