About the Author
MEGAN MCCAFFERTY writes fiction for tweens, teens and teens-at-heart of all ages. The author of over ten novels, she's best known for Sloppy Firsts and four more books in the New York Times bestselling Jessica Darling series. Described in her first review as "Judy Blume meets Dorothy Parker" (Wall Street Journal), she's been trying to live up to that high standard ever since.
Reviews

Praise for the Jessica Darling series:

"Alongside Meg Cabot's novels and the Gossip Girl series, I can't think of a series more formative to the turn of the millennium YA!" --Book Riot

"Smart, tentative, and funny, Jessica is a likable and wry observer of the competitive, gossipy high-school world."--Booklist on Second Helpings

"Jessica's an original, but her problems are universal, and McCafferty is formidably adept at channeling her self-deprecating, wise-guy voice. If you don't see yourself in Jessica Darling, you're not looking hard enough." - Chicago Tribune

"Jessica is a captivating, intelligent, acidly funny-but always believably adolescent-narrator who is unsparing in her sketches of Pineville High 'society' yet touchingly alive to her own vulnerabilities."--Publishers Weekly

"McCafferty looks at travails with humor as well as heart." --People on Second Helpings

"Judy Blume meets Dorothy Parker." --Wall Street Journal

"Megan McCafferty rocks! Her sharp wit and keen satirical eye make her books automatic must-reads." --Meg Cabot, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Princess Diaries series and Size 12 Is Not Fat

"Such a sharp, funny, poignant heroine, with an inner world we can all relate to. I love it." --Sophie Kinsella, author of the New York Times bestselling Shopaholic series on Sloppy Firsts

"Megan McCafferty puts Jessica Darling through college in Charmed Thirds, and in the process turns her from a tart-tongued New Jersey high school philosopher into a heart-wrenching representation of all things uncertain. If she's not careful, she might end up with a heroine for our times." --Ned Vizzini, author of Be More Chill and It's Kind of a Funny Story

"Charmed Thirds is a witty, biting, and altogether true accounting of a girl's journey to young womanhood, complete with all of the cringe-inducing, hilarious moments of love, shame, and uncertainty that readers will remember from their own lives." --Jennifer Weiner, author of Goodnight Nobody and Good in Bed
