“With her vividly rendered settings, emotionally complex characters, and sweet and sinister magical realism, Lesperance may be a promising successor to Alice Hoffman. . . . Sharp and snow-dusted yet strangely cozy; a comforting winter’s read.” – Kirkus, starred review
“This mesmerizing and sometimes heartbreaking fantasy reveals the complicated relationships between mothers and daughters while exploring mental illness, loss, regret, guilt, and forgiveness. . . . A haunting contemporary fantasy inspired by Norwegian fairy tales set on Cape Cod and on an island off Norway’s coast.” – School Library Journal
