Praise:
“What a fantastic writer you are. You had me hooked by the end of the second paragraph…I’ve never been able to identify so completely with a female character until now.”
“I read the book in 24 hours (on and off, obviously) and completely loved it. I’m so sad it isn’t longer.”
“I found much of it compelling. I was drawn to the main character Elizabeth and was very interested in her character development. It enabled me to understand sexual development in young women better. It was also an obvious pro disability rights text which I very much appreciated…The bottom line is your book made me think for sure. For that, I extend a very big thank you.”
