"Kassy O'Roarke is a modern day Nancy Drew...The themes of loyalty and friendship are strong throughout making this the perfect middle grade (and upper elementary) novel. I adore this book and cannot wait to purchase it for my students. They are going to love it!" Librarian_Fitz, Kid's Bookstagrammer
"Kelly Oliver has written a magnificent middle-grade story that will captivate readers with an exciting plot, relatable narrator, plenty of laughs, and a sprinkling of lessons. She has nailed the voice of her heroine and hit on so many issues, phobias and difficulties of young adolescence. Kassy O’Roarke is a great role model: smart, thoughtful, clever, ambitious, motivated, curious and vulnerable. She even understands it’s okay to cry now and then. But above all, Kassy is real. I loved this character and this book — so will you and your kids." BookTrib Reviews
