Critics Review

A delicious brew of love and friendship

Excellent read, perfect for book clubs… An important and moving story.

Sadie Pearse has written a truly sensitive and involving novel about gender, identity and family that has important things to say, but does so with warmth and great storytelling. It feels like a book that all modern parents should read

Both thought provoking and emotional, it will have you in cheers as well as tears - The Sun

This book broke my heart and gently pieced it back together. It is original, sensitive and intensely moving and I was constantly questioning myself: what would I do. An incredibly accomplished novel.

An important story that will prompt discussion - Good Housekeeping

Heart-wrenching - Fabulous Magazine

The kind of book that everyone will have an opinion on. Thought-provoking, moving and incredibly insightful.

A thoughtful and sensitive account of parenting a transgender child and the emotional and practical challenges it raises.
