Praise

LA TIMES
"Dark stuff, but that's what makes it powerful. The thoughts and emotions are real and in the moment, not hindsight recollections or clinical self-help...more authentic than the 1971 cautionary tale about drugs, Go Ask Alice. — Sue Carpenter

LA ALTERNATIVE PRESS
"Emotionally transcendent and eerily personally riveting—a razor-sharp vignette from one womanís emotional history." — Erin Broadley

CLEVELAND PLAIN DEALER
Go Ask Ogre #8 on the week's Pop Culture "Pop Ten" on 8/1/2005

BOINGBOING.NET
"Dark, funny and touching..." — David Pescovitz

LA WEEKLY
"Cringingly confessional, persistently desperate, yet often uproariously funny...an overdue riposte to the bludgeoning morality of the fabricated Go Ask Alice." — Doug Harvey

FLAVORPILL.COM
"Jolene Siana turns this story of teen suicide, emotional paralysis, and self-destruction into a hilarious and engaging portrait of someone we know, maybe all too well."
