Reviews

An enthralling dystopian drama that makes complex points about parenting with depth and feeling.-- "Kirkus Reviews"

Enthralling...Woven seamlessly throughout are societal assumptions and stereotypes about mothers, especially mothers of color, and their consequences. Chan's imaginative flourishes render the mothers' vulnerability to social pressures and governmental whims nightmarish and palpable. It's a powerful story, made more so by its empathetic and complicated heroine.-- "Publishers Weekly"
