Love this!! The Stand by Me set up of a group of kids figuring out a mystery together is a classic, but the twists and scope for Paper Girls take it to a whole new level. I also really like the fact that the Erin, Mac, KJ, and Tiff are all 12 instead of 16-19. The age range completely changes the girls’ dynamics and priorities, and everyone should get to have world-changing science fiction adventures no matter their age. Can’t wait to read the next one!
