Praise for You Must Not Miss: A 2020 CCBC Choice
* "Leno (Summer of Salt, 2018, etc.), channeling early Stephen King
at his best, offers no neat conclusions, and her frank examination
of depression, grief, alcoholism, and the ruinous aftermath of
sexual assault, is grim yet effective. Readers will ponder this
exceedingly creepy gut punch of a tale long after turning the last
page."
--Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
* "Compelling and harrowing.... Leno doesn't shy away from
challenging themes... and she brings lyrically haunting language to
a story filled with inherent darkness."--Publishers Weekly (starred
review)
* "Leno (Summer of Salt, 2018) takes a concept...and executes it
with beautiful, brutal precision. Between the lines of spare and
dreamlike prose lurks a girl who, though quiet at first, demands to
be seen, and readers will not soon forget her."--Booklist (starred
review)
"A little bit Coraline, a little bit Stephen King.... A frank,
unflinching look at grief, rage, depression, and how pain manifests
as cruelty. You must not miss You Must Not Miss."--Mackenzie
Vanengelenhoven, King's English Bookshop (Salt Lake City, UT)
"A mind-bender of a book."--Rosie Lee, Readers Books (Sonoma,
CA)
"This unusual blend of realistic fiction, fantasy, and mayhem begs
debate wherever it is read! Stock more than one copy."--VOYA
