Miserably trapped in small town Texas with no invention of the internet in sight Ribon spent countless hours of her high school years writing letters to her (often unrequited) crushes. The big question is: Why did she always keep a copy for herself? Wince along with Ribon as she tries to understand exactly how she ever thought shed win a boys heart by writing him a letter that began: "Share with me your soul " and ends with some remarkably awkward erotica. Youll come for the incredibly bad poetry youll stay for the incredibly bad poetry about racism. "...brain-breakingly funny...hugely relatable very entertaining... Its a collection of embarrassing stories and mortifying notes yes but its also a pretty deeply felt memoir about her introduction to boys and sex and - perhaps most painfully - learning when not to tell people how you feel." -- Linda Holmes NPR
