"The dichotomy between Vicky and her online persona will ring true to many teen readers. Roat explores both the impulse to create an enhanced digital self and the desperation of those seeking connection through online platforms. Also noteworthy is Roat’s portrayal ofVicky’s paralyzing social anxiety."
