Praise for Lily and Dunkin:

“Gephart clearly has a lot of heart, and she tells their stories with compassion.”–Kirkus 

“A thoughtfully and sensitively written work of character-driven fiction that dramatically addresses two important subjects that deserve more widespread attention.”–Booklist, starred 

“Gephart sympathetically contrasts the physical awkwardness, uncertainty, and longings of these two outsiders during a few tightly-plotted months, building to a crescendo of revelation…[A] valuable portrait of two teenagers whose journeys are just beginning.”–PW 
 
“This would be a fantastic addition to any middle grade library collection, and is highly recommended for all ages.”–VOYA
