What readers are saying: "This is the kind of book you could read over and over, and always spot something new to think about. A definite must read!" - Kyra Lennon, author of Nobody Knows "A story that digs in its claws and doesn't let go. " - Elizabeth Seckman, author of About Her “Ethereal moments drift through this ghostly novella about a girl, then a woman, trying hard to escape a life-changing, almost life-ending, moment in her youth. Quiet, chilling and absolutely thrilling!” - Martha Engber, author of Winter Light "Readers with a preference for character-oriented literary fiction, and who don’t mind surrealism and realism juxtaposed without boundaries ... will relish the poignant experience and the hopeful ending." - Rosh Reviews "I think it’s probably the most beautiful thing I’ve read all year. If you enjoy character-driven literary fiction and somewhat surreal reads, then you might just love this." - A_Mac, BookSirens reviewer "A short but impactful punch that has lingered with me." - Tracy O'Donnell, BookSirens reviewer |
