All the Lonely People was described by the Guardian as, 'An adroit, fast-paced YA page-turner that movingly explores themes of isolation, disaffection and our overwhelming need to be connected'.

A unique premise told beautifully - Kiran Millwood Hargrave (via Instagram)A truly extraordinary and original book. Utterly gobsmackingly brilliant.

There's a really satisfying arc, and the visits to Owen's other world add a mythic perspective. - The i newspaperHalf realistic, half mystical, wholly successful - Financial Times
