“There’s an abundance of humour both subtle and overt, and a shattering of stereotypes and tropes. . . . This is a book that grabs readers by the heart and the head.” —Starred Review, Quill & Quire
“Although Bun is 14, she possesses the endearing naiveté and honesty of a child, but her first-person narration isn’t sappy or immature. . . . Bun O’Keefe will settle comfortably at home in readers’ hearts.” –Starred Review, Kirkus Reviews
“Heather Smith’s second novel burns with nostalgia, wonder and sadness… a quietly profound, starkly Canadian account of being unwanted by family and society.” —Globe and Mail
“Teens will truly dive into Bun’s mind and her surroundings through her understanding of the world… A nuanced, well-done novel about tough topics that deserves a place in most collections.” —School Library Journal
“Smith’s strength is her attention to setting details and character development. . . . Recommended.” —CM: Canadian Review of Materials
