Josephine Wunsch was a friend of my Grandma Reeves. I was a teenager in high school when she was writing this book. I had lunch with her and Grandma at the Country Club of Detroit. She wanted to hear me speak - i.e. teen slang. She also had some questions about high school such as how teachers handed out grades. When the book was published I was working on the yearbook at my high school. That year we used photos of lockers to introduce each section. I put this book in to one of the lockers for the year book photo :)

Bad. Just really, really bad. I don't think the author has actually heard actual people -- especially teenagers -- talking before. The 17-year-old main character says "t'was" at one point. For serious.
