Critics Review
Praise for Stops Along the Way
A Junior Library Guild Selection
“A sweet story exploring sibling bonds, disability, and blossoming love.” —Kirkus Reviews
“Sortino delivers a heartfelt story about learning to accept an uncertain future while also embracing newfound freedoms and independence, all wrapped up in a nerdy second-chance love story that readers will enjoy… Highly recommended for fans of authors like Rachel Lynn Solomon, Kristy Boyce, and Alison Gervais.” —School Library Journal
“The sisters’ differing abilities—Amelia is losing her sight, and Iris is partially deaf—are not the focus of the story, but are well wound among the things they deal with every day, making this an apt slice-of-life with a side of romance.” —Booklist
“Stops Along the Way is a playful and poignant love letter to all of life’s detours, and the unexpected beauty they lead us to. Sortino’s characters are charming and relatable, and it’s a joy to watch them take the wheel, roll the dice, and learn to bet on themselves and each other.” —Jen St. Jude, author of If Tomorrow Doesn’t Come and Where You’ll Find Us
“Stops Along The Way is the vehicle for a perfect summer road trip: romance in the driver’s seat with sisterhood riding shotgun and a backseat packed full of sunglasses, swimsuits, and board games. An endearingly tender story with characters you’ll root for through each twist, turn, and roll of the dice.” —Marissa Eller, author of Joined At The Joints and Left On Read
