What They're Saying
Critics Review
*”Mirror Girls is a spine-tingling, empowering look at justice and civil action that urges readers to be aware, to be true to themselves and to take action. As Magnolia observes, ‘As twin sisters, white and Black, we are a symbol of coming victory. A promise of change.’“–BookPage, starred review

”[A] spooky Southern gothic ghost story. ”–BCCB
