First — I love this title for a blog! Secondly, I loved the review. Jessica is a university student in Canada and she brings an interesting perpective to her reviews. She liked Nobody’s Secret’s for all the reasons I hoped she would — (I would love to list, but it’s just too self-serving! Read it here) but she also spent some time talking about Emily Dickinson’s mother. Jessica thought it was refreshing to see a parental figure portrayed in a positive light (or at all! So many books for kids do away with the parents altogether). I love love love when a reviewer makes me look at my work in a new way. So thanks Read My Breath Away!

Emily Dickinson's Mother (also named Emily!)
