Praise for ODD GIRL OUT "There has not been so much interest in
young females since psychologist Mary Pipher chronicled anorexics
and suicide victims in her 1994 bestseller, Reviving Ophelia."--The
Washington Post "Provocative . . . Cathartic to any teen or parent
trying to find company . . . it will sound depressingly familiar to
any girl with a pulse."--Detroit Free Press "Encourages girls to
address one another when they feel angry or jealous, rather than
engage in the rumor mill."--Chicago Tribune "Peels away the smiley
surfaces of adolescent female society to expose one of girlhood's
dark secrets: the vicious psychological warfare waged every day in
the halls of our . . . schools."--San Francisco Chronicle
