"Will be popular with readers who like to read about teens having to combat great personal challenges." --School Library Journal
"The book balances tensions of class, antisemitism, and sexuality in complex and compassionate ways. A gut-wrenching and cathartic page-turner about identity, desire, and the strength it takes to heal." --Kirkus Reviews
"The story stands to be a balm for those wrangling their own traumas, pains, and loneliness . . . which teaches its heroines that their pain, though real and worthy of respect, doesn't have to last forever." --Foreword Reviews
