Oh, The Pics That You'll Post!

Part satire, part cautionary-tale, Oh, the Pics That 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 New York Times bestselling author of The Nanny Diaries The book has a wonderful, cosmopolitan vibe, would do well in LA, NYC, or Paris! —Wendi Schuller, Author of Global Guide to Divorce It’s hilarious and too damn true!— Emmanuelle Chirici, Actress 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 uses Instagram–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, writer for Vogue, Manrepeller, etc.

Maiana Rose graduated from Pitzer College in 2014 with a BA in interdisciplinary media studies, fine arts, and anthropology. She then moved to Los Angeles to pursue a career in entertainment and art. Maiana found an avenue to meld her love of comedy and art when she started an illustrated Instagram account from which she lovingly mocks social media trends. She also attempts to bring to light some issues society faces surrounding social media, mostly the amount of attention people give it above other things. Maiana sees Oh, The Pics That You’ll Post! as a way to poke light fun at ourselves, while also sending a message to the up and coming generation that Instagram is not life. She began a line of Instagram inspired postcards which she sold at local stores in Los Angeles and moved on to writing Oh, The Pics That You’ll Post!, and she hopes to continue authoring and illustrating books with a little edge of social commentary and humor.
