I read several longer stories this year. I liked debbie’s "Beest" [13+] the most. Written in casual first person, the narrator leads readers through painful self awareness with humor. From the first instance where she see herself as a bra size, through an awkward arranged date ending with an evaluation of her own behavior, teenage anxieties gain weight and importance. The light and graceful writing style whisks you through two or three days of high school life so quickly readers can easily miss this stories interwoven themes.
