“Part satire, part cautionary-tale, Oh, the Places You’ll Post” is the smart, funny picture book I would love to be able to buy my pre-tween and all her friends—before they get their first phones.” –Nicola Kraus, #1 best selling co-author of The Nanny Diaries
“It’s hilarious and too damn true!” –Emmanuelle Chirici. (Acrtress and Influencer)
“Maiana captures, a certain and very common Los Angeles prototype with humor and honesty. A quick, delightful, and entertaining must-read for anyone who is trying to “make it” in LA–or anyone who needs a dose of fun. I think that anyone can, much to their dismay, identify with the characters in Oh, The Pics that You’ll Post!” –Alexandra Malmed (rwiter for Vogue, Manrepeller, etc.)
