This was darling! The audiobook is top notch!! The narrator was perfect for this book. Soooo funny! I laughed out loud so many times. And I really appreciated the incredible metaphors the author painted throughout the book. Such a good summer read!

Mary Jane is a cute coming of age novel. Light hearted and quick read. At the same time incorporates thoughts on deeper issues. Fun to think about who inspirations for the characters were.

This was soooo good. I loved every minute of it. It was so rich, I felt like I just dove into Mary Jane's life and I felt like it was a magical summer for me too. The description of the people, the relationships, the times, the love and the music--oh I could literally sing along with the music! This MUST be made into a movie with an incredible soundtrack. I was so sad it when it was over that I may have to read it again.
