Review
“Her [Adornetto’s] dialogue feels fresh and real, pulled from the mouths of her peers without any cultural markers necessary to prove relevance... If it were not for young adult readers like her, the Y.A. boom never would have happened and publishing would be much gloomier.” (The New York Times Book Review)
A compelling novel of good and evil that will find an audience among girls who can’t get enough of otherworldly characters and situations and heart-wrenching romance.” (School Library Journal)
