These young authors produce fresh, creative, honest and always compelling words that make Teen Ink the standard for teen expression.

Future books in this incredible series will examine other aspects of teen life, from love to loss and everything in-between. All will focus on the winning formula of teens talking to teens with brutal honesty and unique creativity. Teenage readers will find a voice they can relate to; the reassurance that they are not alone; and straight talk about the real issues that affect them.

Written by teens for teens, about issues as seen from their perspective and how they deal with them. This book in the series is about relationships between friends and family. Very well written pieces of prose and poetry. I very much enjoyed reading it.
