But when he breaks up with her, Nina is lost. What is she if not a girlfriend? What is she made of? Broken-hearted, Nina tries to figure out what the conditions of love are.

Reviews/Praise

“Bentley’s narration never sugarcoats these topics and presents them as Nina experiences them: immediate, real, and oftentimes unsettling.” —Booklist Audio

"Smart, true, and devastating, this is brutally, necessarily forthcoming about the crags of teen courtship." —Lexi Walters Wright, Booklist

"Arnold interweaves myriad landscapes . . . into a narrative wholeness that is greater than its parts. Unflinchingly candid, unapologetically girl, and devastatingly vital." —Kirkus Starred Review
