"Maynard's narrative style is smooth and natural, and her characterization of Nate as an adolescent caught in a social vacuum...is apt. Readers drawn to quiet, complex character stories will appreciate this emotionally true offering."

Kirkus, 05/15/2005

"The author's poignant third-person narrative...offers an intimate rendering of emotional anguish and a subtly conveyed meditation on survival and forgiveness."
