Synopses & Reviews
Rookiemag.com is a website created by and for young women to make the best of the beauty, pain and awkwardness of being a teenager. When it becomes tough to appreciate such things, we have good plain fun and visual pleasure. When you're sick of having to be happy all the time, we have lots of rants, too. Every school year, we compile the best from the site into a print yearbook. Behold: our Sophomore year! In Rookie Yearbook Two, we tackle kissing, doubt, rejection, backhanded compliments, angsty art and more! Featuring interviews with Carrie Brownstein, Morrissey, Molly Ringwald, Neil Degrasse Tyson, Chris Ware and Emma Watson, and exclusive content from Judy Blume, Lena Dunham, Grimes and Mindy Kaling. Plus: handy DIYs, fortune tellers, tarot cards and stickers!
