(Starred review.) [W]inning.… Hartnett’s quirky, Southern-tinged debut relies heavily on Elvis’s relative naivete for dramatic irony.… [The] story is affecting, exploring how a fragile but precocious girl strives to define herself after a tragedy.

(Starred review.) [B]rilliant… moving… funny…a stunning combination of youthful and astute.… How a whip-smart young girl handles the loss of her mother and the reorientation of her family; charming and beautifully written.
