Summary

Critics Review

A touching tale of the true value of friendship and family in giving meaning to our lives - SFX magazine

‘An adroit, fast-paced YA page-turner that movingly explores themes of isolation, disaffection and our overwhelming need to be connected’ - The Guardian

All The Lonely People is an unsettling, uncomfortable read, initially seeming like it may be a grim, journalistic account but then is quickly elevated to something more artistic, literary and indeed interesting by its magical realist bent. Both Kat and Wesley fight for the reader’s heart in a narrative that demands empathy, but not forgiveness, for bullies and their victims. - Irish Times
