"[An] empowering autobiographical novel fused with magical realism and allegory . . . with the nods to Langston Hughes, Maya Angelou, Malcolm X, and Alice Walker. ―SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL, STARRED REVIEW
"Just brilliant."―KIRKUS REVIEWS
"A treasure of a story that’s poignant, soulful, and inspiring."―BOOKLIST
"Mold-breaking. The novel never shies from tough subject matter (drug addiction, sexual assault), at the same time deftly integrating magically realistic components and allegory into contemporary scenes."―PUBLISHER'S WEEKLY
"Echo Brown has written a novel for young readers, mining her experiences of racism, poverty, sexual abuse, and depression to create an inspiring tale of a young wizard." ―NYTIMES
