Lilybeth asked Lena Dunham:

Hi, Lena! Loved your book. One of the best "essays books" I've read in a while. Wanted to know if you're into the YA genre. If so, have you read any lately that you absolutely love?

Lena Dunham Thank you!!! I ADORE YA. I started reading YA when I was six and it was "inappropriate" and now I am 28 and it's inappropriate in a whole new way:) In addition to my classics (Judy Blume, Karen Cushman) I recently read and loved Eleanor and Park. Rainbow Rowell has a stunning voice. I also just discovered Annie on my Mind, which is not new but still totally groundbreaking in its story of gay teenage girls finding their voice and sexuality.
