It's been a very exciting last few weeks! Eeeeeeeeeee! (See? That's how you can tell).
My editor passed along two wonderful reviews, which I've taken the liberty of paring down to remove potential spoilers.
The first review comes from Kirkus Reviews:
"Alex’s absent mother provides an element of drama in this otherwise witty, laugh-out-loud romp. Whittemore handles not only the comedy but deftly portrays Alex’s and her brothers’ advancement into a more mature state of mind. It should keep middle-schoolers laughing from start to finish. Funny and perky. (Fiction. 8-12)"
The reviewer laughed out loud!
The second review comes from an equally awesome source, School Library Journal:
"Secondary characters have surprising depth. There’s plenty of humor along the way to redemption and healing as Alex and her brothers learn to work as a team and as a family."–Brenda Kahn, Tenakill Middle School, Closter, NJ
Awww. She makes me sound so thoughtful!
All my lovelies, I hope you'll enjoy this book, too!
