Critic reviews

'Bushby's debut is poignant and atmospheric.' (The Guardian)
'A poignantly written novel that is hard to put down and even harder to forget.' (Kirkus Reviews)
'Aisha Bushby maintains a delicate balance between the dream world and the everyday one, keeping both equally vivid, credible and compelling. An impressive debut and a skilful examination of grief, love and growing-up.' (Books for Keeps)
