Other Indie FavoritesHow to Build a Girl: A Novel, by Caitlin Moran (Harper, $26.99) “In Wolverhampton, England, in 1990, 14-year-old Johanna humiliates herself on live television. Shortly thereafter, she decides to reinvent herself as Dolly Wilde, a fast-talking, hard-drinking sex adventurer who writes for the local music rag. Never mind that she doesn’t drink, that she’s a virgin, and that her music collection is comprised solely of The Beatles and the Bee Gees. Armed with eyeliner, a fair amount of Thunderbird 20/20, and pure determination, Dolly breaks onto the scene and makes a new life for herself, only to realize that the hardest—and most heartbreaking—changes are the ones we make within. Laugh-out-loud hilarious, inspiring, and profound, Moran has written the coming-of-age story of our time.” —Amanda Hurley, Inkwood Books, Tampa, FL
