MEDIA REVIEWS

[Meredith Russo] so vibrantly illustrates Amanda's life with delicate, achingly beautiful words. And keep in mind: this is only Russo's first novel; if there's any justice in the world, we're all witnessing a YA powerhouse in the making. - Kirkus

A wonderful, warm hearted novel about realising who you really are and knowing you deserve to be loved for it. - Inis Reading Guide

A beautifully, authentically told #ownvoices story of a trans girl trying to hide her past in a new school. While the author admits to oversimplifying the trans experience to make Amanda’s story more relatable to cis audiences, this doesn’t stop this being an important and relatable book - LGBT YA Reviews

A coming-of-age with real world gravitas and a love story with heart. Will not only keep readers hooked, it will make the world a better, more empathetic place. - Adi Alsaid, author of Let's Get Lost

A fantastic addition to contemporary YA and also LGBTQIA YA and I’ll be looking out for Meredith Russo’s next book in future. If you love coming-of-age stories that talk about family, friendship and first love, then you shouldn’t miss this one! - QueerYA
