β€œBrianna’s growth and the choice she faces…are engaging.” ~Publishers Weekly

β€œMcInnes has managed to make Brianna a realistic 16-year-old without resorting to stereotypes…The crux of the book is the concept of family and what it really means. All in all…a good deal of teen appeal.” ~School Library Journal
