Lessons From The Healing Time of Hickeys To All the YA I've Loved Before

    • Books

We revisited The Healing Time of Hickeys by Karen Rivers (published in 2003) about 20 years after we read it the first time, which means we spotted a lot of the things that made us who we are in the pages of this book.

This weird girl lit came at us in a time we needed it the most our freshmen year of high school. Haley Andromeda went through all the same things we did — bad haircuts, terrible crushes, complex friendships — with so much humor and love. Two decades later, we still recognize the things she taught us about ourselves…and about hickeys. 



Content Warning: This book talks a bit about an inappropriate student/teacher relationship, and we have a brief discussion about it.
