The Village Voice
One of the secrets of Potential‘s appeal is that it cannily combines the drive, raunch, and imagination of the best fiction with near anthropological realness….a mesmerizing read….a nakedly honest exploration of the desire and the whole range of emotions it can set off….hilarious frankness and a wickedly addictive sense of storytelling” Elizabeth Vincentelli, Village Voice

Booklist (Starred Review)
“Schrag’s frankness is laudable . . . She renders the physical and emotional experiences of a girl working through sexual-orientation issues superbly. Her authenticity and precocious insight demand that she be fully read before judgment is cast.” Booklist (starred)

Kirkus (Starred Review)
“A smart, sweet graphic memoir. Schrag’s work should resonate with anyone, female or male, gay or straight, who has survived high school.” Kirkus (starred)

Publisher’s Weekly
Potential is an honest, rambling, obsessive narrative of high school angst, with a potential of its own peeking through. . . this coming-of-age story amply displays the emotional uncertainty of adolescence. ”Publishers Weekly
