"Praise for The Plain JANES: ""Plain JANES brought me back to High School in the best way. It reminded me of the power of that time; the friendships, the growth, and the consequences. Cecil and Jim are clearly a powerful duo, and the work they've created is startlingly relevant to the world today.""--Tillie Walden, Eisner Award winning author of Spinning and On a Sunbeam ""An old-school John Hughes movie in comic-book form...you'll most likely find yourself wishing there were more after you turn the last page.""--IGN.com ""Castellucci (Boy Proof) and Rugg (co-creator of Street Angel) nimbly make their larger point-that fear is an indulgence we must give ourselves permission to overcome--without ever preaching...""--Publishers Weekly ""Castellucci imparts an infectious, punky energy to her female leads, which Rugg renders with humor and nuance.""--Washington Post ""Fantastic!!!! #TeamPlainJANES forever!""--Jennifer & Matthew Holm, creators of the Babymouse series ""The story is filled with unforced insights about the role of art in our lives, and Jim Rugg's understated illustrations let these moments glimmer quietly on the page.""--NPR's All Things Considered"
