Praise for Trinkets:
* "Literary without being precious...[a] funny, smart, and perceptive book."—Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"A just-right ending will make this a hit with fans of Sarah Dessen, Deb Caletti, Elizabeth Scott and other venerable chick-lit authors."—Kirkus Reviews
"...Nails the claustrophobic feel of high school..."—Booklist
"With different glimpses of high school life, some romance for each character, and family drama that doesn't overwhelm the plot, Trinkets is a quick and entertaining read."—School Library Journal
"Chapters alternate between the voices of the three girls, giving insight into three differing yet parallel motivations for shoplifting while creating characters that readers will find appealing and sympathetic whether or not they agree with their perspectives."—The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
"I want to build a shrine to this book. It explores and debunks high school clichés, and understands the language only teenage feelings speak. Its three narrators make a unique story not only exciting to experience vicariously, but relatable. It will sit on my shelf next to a My So-Called Life boxset and copies of The Virgin Suicides and Girl, Interrupted."
—Tavi Gevinson, Editor-in-Chief, Rookie
"Hilarious and wise, Trinkets brought me straight back to those hellish days of high school. I fell in love with these three girls--their individual struggles are so real and wonderfully touching."—Anna Farris, star of The House Bunny
"I am not surprised that Kiwi Smith, once again, has written something so insightful, sensitive and, of course, funny. Trinkets is a beautiful creation. It is raw and full of heart, honest and open. Never has someone described the phenomena of 'mirror faces' more perfectly. I am grateful for that."—Ellen Page, star of Juno and Whip It
"Trinkets is a sweet, funny, edgy novel...imagine The Breakfast Club with girls and shoplifting. I absolutely loved it."—Victoria Justice, star of Victorious
