Rookie Yearbook Three

It's super cool. I love the fact that the articles ...
I ordered this because I keep hearing everyone talking about it social media and so I wanted to see what all of the buzz was about - even though I am no longer a teen... I wish this magazine was around when I was a teen though! It's super cool. I love the fact that the articles are written by young people and even the fashion spreads feature actual young people. It's really a rarity (unfortunately) to have something like this exist, but it's so awesome that it does! And there are articles written by "famous" people that aren't just about boys and what they eat and dieting!I mean, I may be in my 20's but I still got a lot from this magazine and there were even some articles that were actually quite mature and I really think anyone could read this and take something positive away from it. Excellent magazine! Highly recommend (for any age reader!)!!

Distasteful and uninspiring - NOT role model material.
I was very much looking forward to gifting these to my daughter for Christmas. She loves Tavi and all that she has offered online with her blog. My daughter considered her a role model, until reading through all three Rookie Yearbooks. She and I were very put off and flat out disappointed by the contents of these books. They are filled with masturbating tips, sexual how -tos, and other uncomfortable topics for young girls. There's even an article on how to fake sick to stay home from school. A great lesson on dishonesty.I am not a prude by any means, but consider these books to be very distasteful. They should at least come with a warning for 16 and under. My daughter is a very mature teenager and knows a lot about life for someone her age. I understand that there are things you don't want to talk to your parents about, but when you are looking for inspiration and find instead talks of porn, blow jobs, and how to find your clit, you feel very let down. Very rarely do we restrict what she can watch or read, but if I had know ahead of time that these books were filled with such topics I would not have bought them.Of course there is some good content, but it hardy makes up for the excessive forced teenage angst most of the articles contain. When I asked my daughter what she didn't like about the yearbooks she said they are all so angry and made her feel depressed. They are not uplifting, inspiring, or encouraging like she had hoped they would be. When I asked her what she liked about them she said she loved the few DIY's and famous people interviews.At her request I will be returning all three so she can buy art supplies instead.

Creative and Inspiring!
I think these yearbooks are great and that Rookie is great for teen girls. I really wish we had Rookie when I was younger! I am in my 30's but I enjoy reading these articles and the great interviews with artists like Lorde and Kathleen Hanna. I mentor teenage girls and I think some of the issues in here are really, really important - there is an article about getting rid of toxic friends that I think is important for all all ages but especially young adults. Love the fashion in here and I find it inspiring and comforting to read the interviews with the young girls featured in here. There is a lot of great content.

Perfect for teenagers. Too mature for tweens.
I purchased this book as a gift for my 11 year old niece, but after reading through it, I realized it's a little too mature for an 11-year-old - or at least too embarrassing to open for Christmas in front of your mother (there's a 2 page spread entitled "what to do when you're caught masturbating"). I'll encourage her to read the blog when she's a bit older. I think Tavi is a huge inspiration for young girls and I hope I can get my niece to learn about her at some point as she's growing up.

Recommended read for all teenagers
These Rookie Yearbooks are a must read for teenagers (I am a teenager so I van verify this) This book is great for advice and made me feel comfortable with myself and is generally just a really great book for all teenage (girls especially) to read.I recommend this to anyone buying for a teenage girl or who is one.

... given this as a gift twice and the girls love it. What's not to love
I have given this as a gift twice and the girls love it. What's not to love? Thoughtful art in which women are at the center of Tavi Gavinson's project of giving girls and women a bulletin board and canvas for being thinking and loving human beings.

Would have KILLED for a "guru" like Tavi back in my teens
I am 34 years old and devoured this..... Would have KILLED for a "guru" like Tavi back in my teens. So naturally, bought one for all the teens in my life with highlighted passages and phrases that just hit home with me. Bravo, Rookie Yearbook!

Gran libro, buen envío pero descuidado al momento de empacar
EL libro es maravilloso, el repartidor fue muy amable y el paquete estaba en perfectas condiciones, pero desafortunadamente Amazon envió el libro un tanto maltratado, lo cual es muy usual en sus libros ): deberían ser más cuidadosos al momento de empacarlos.
