Reviews

"Langston packs a lot into this quick-moving novella. Her portrait of Paige and how she copes with her fears, her friends, her family, a possible boyfriend, and especially Brooke comes across well. Paige's performances hold readers fast as the contest gets underway. It's a brief but effective foray into a branch of the performing arts not often covered. An entertaining and effective glimpse into stand-up."-- "Kirkus Reviews"

"Readers will be rooting for Paige as she competes...recommended."-- "School Library Connection"

"This entertaining and inspiring story will appeal to anyone who feels like they don't fit in. Paige is a genuinely funny character and a winner that readers will root for."-- "Booklist"

"Langston takes the reader realistically through every nerve-wracking step: in the hotel, backstage, and through three performances at the mic."-- "VOYA Magazine"
