Editorial Reviews
Canadian Sociology and Anthropology Association
"[LeBlanc] draws on her insider experiences and insights and on the field research and interviews she carried out..."
Carol Brooks Gardner, professor of sociology and women's studies, Indiana University-Indianapolis
The girls and women that Leblanc portrays in Pretty in Punk are very nearly as original, spirited, and delightful as Leblanc's prose itself....A happy conjunction author, topic, and methodology.
Wendy Simonds, author of Abortion at Work: Ideology and Practice in a Feminist Clinic and Women and Self-Help Culture
Pretty in Punk is cutting-edge feminist and cultural studies research....The stories [Leblanc] relates offer inspirational evidence of rebellion against stereotypical gender arrangements--of girls empowering themselves in unique ways.
