LAURA DEAN KEEPS BREAKING UP WITH ME

MARIKO TAMAKI//ROSEMARY VALERO-O’CONNELL

Laura Dean, the most popular girl in high school, was Frederica Riley's dream girl: charming, confident, and SO cute. There's just one problem: Laura Dean is maybe not the greatest girlfriend.

Mariko Tamaki (Skim, This One Summer) and Rosemary Valero-O’Connell (Lumberjanes, What is Left) are at the top of their game in Laura Dean, starting with the premise of a teenage romance and carefully revealing a story about friendship and self-worth set at the point in life when we all start to become the type of people we are.

Much more than a high school-based drama, Laura Dean Keeps Breaking Up With Me is a poignant character study, expertly told and super fun to read.
