“The Nocturnals has made a ‘tour’ through my classroom and every single reader has said the same thing, "Do you have book 2 yet?" That question alone implies huge success!” —I'd So Rather Be Reading
“...as a mom, I really appreciated the strong messages about loyalty and friendship...I think [the book] would be a great book to read not only in schools but also for book clubs.” —Booking Mama
