Critics Review

“A breezy, feel-good tale with whiffs of fantasy and wish fulfillment.” – Booklist (starred review)

“A gripping story of loss and connection.” – Kirkus Reviews

“Foley elevates this quiet exploration of healing after trauma and finding one’s place to belong by gradually incorporating magical twists and sinister undertones. Each new variable is unveiled with a thoughtfulness that ensures the grounded themes surrounding grief and bullying remain the focus of this feel-good adventure.” – Publishers Weekly
