Three Girls and Their Brother

In Theresa Rebeck’s compulsively readable first novel, Polly, Daria, and Amelia Heller become “It” girls when they are featured in a photo spread in The New Yorker. This is a funny, edgy look at celebrity and the machinations behind it. Rebeck tells the story from the perspectives of each of the girls and their brother in turn, creating distinctive, spot-on voices. You will root for these teens—they are smart and articulate, and most of the adults in their lives do not have their best interests at heart. --Katy S.
