a_p_wyndham's commented: A "closet full of borrowed personalities" is a wonderful central conceit. "Cool? Desirable? Pretty? Normal?" is also a great line. I especially like how tangible the anxiety is, and the slight wordplay between pretty/normal. "Do I look pretty? Do I look normal?" And smashed together when read aloud, "Do I look pretty normal?"
