Laura Moe is the author of Breakfast with Neruda, a Simon & Schuster book.
"This debut is...flecked with an endearing blend of idealism,
empathy, and quirk..." --Booklist
"Moe uses lyrical language to introduce teenagers whose problems go
beyond bullying or unrequited love. She treats Michael's unusual
home situation with realistic grace, while the relationship between
the two teenagers is organic and interesting. A summer long
punishment becomes a sensitive, thoughtful novel." --Kirkus
Reviews
"It's about love and understanding and betrayal and pain. All the
necessary ingredients to make a connection to the reader." --Teen
Librarian Toolbox
"There is a beautiful relationship between two teens who connect
over poems of Neruda...and their ever-witty banter." --Voya
Magazine
"Those who choose to read it will not regret it. It addresses some
interesting topics (hoarding, missing father, community service,
car bombs), and the not-so-average love story is refreshing. A
good, quick read to take readers away from the usual dystopia and
back into the real world." --Voya Magazine
"Character-driven, funny, lyrical." --New York Public Library
