Critics Review
“Graziadei (Icebreaker) vividly portrays the physical effects of trauma, such as bodily dissociation, and handles both Nathaniel’s and the supporting characters’ challenges with nuance…Via acerbic and vulnerable prose, Graziadei presents an empathetic portrait of a young person learning to do better for the people he loves and for himself.”–Publisher’s Weekly
“The sharp, fluid prose propels readers further into Nathaniel’s complex frame of mind as the story is uplifted by its touching characters…A thoughtful rumination on the power of friendship, trauma, and healing.”–Kirkus
“Graziadei’s second novel, after Printz Honor Book Icebreaker (2022), is a deep exploration of trauma responses, queerplatonic relationships, and the need for community, and Icebreaker readers will appreciate cameos from Mickey and Jaysen.” –Booklist
