Praise for American Subversive:
"A triumphant work of fiction." —Associated Press
Praise for Boys and Girls Like You and Me:
"No one captures millennial adolescence quite like Aryn Kyle...Her new story collection, Boys and Girls Like You and Me (Scribner), features young women making their way in an America of stultifying suburban sameness—strip shopping malls, generically named apartment complexes—who go to ruthless lengths to get what they want,
sleeping with married men and betraying everyone, most of all
themselves. --Vogue
