With its engaging use of mixed mediums and a unique rhythmical flow and pattern, Paper Bag Romance lets readers follow bewitching and quixotic millennial Jennie Summers into the seemingly dystopian world of the 1990s. Navigating a space where a new, starry-eyed visionary is born, Jennie questions the era she is born into as well as the eras in which she blossoms for their inherent imperfection regarding narcissism, materialism, and sexism. Unafraid to question authority and try to tackle some of the more perplexing concepts of the Gen Y generation, Jennie takes the reader along with her as she unravels her self identity, sexuality, and ultimately comes to understand what it is to be feminine without becoming a material object that is owned and consumed.
