Reviews
On Dec 27 2015, a reader said:
When I say Weetzie Bat is one of my most favourite books ever, I must add that I hold it up in such high regard mostly with the rest of the books in the Weetzie Bat book series. Magical realism and fantasy are not genres I read very often, but for Francesca I will.
I first read Weetzie Bat when I was just approaching the end of middle school and getting out of reading Babysitters Club and Fear Street books. Something about it just really hit me as being so friggin' cool I almost couldn't stand it. The characters are just so hip and cool, the descriptions of Los Angeles (referred to as Shangri-L.A.) are lush, and the story of Weetzie and her best guys friends is super fun. It's young adult, but I'll always love it.
