Praise for In Her Skin:
“The mood of this psychological suspense story is appropriately dark and ominous, with a definite gritty edge . . . Obsessive and haunting.” —School Library Journal
“A dark, enthralling tale of truth, lies, and parallel lives.” —Kirkus Reviews
“The mystery of Vivi’s disappearance lends a sinister cast to seemingly harmless interactions. Jo may act rock hard, but her vulnerability and longing are what give this thriller its stakes.” —Booklist
“Savage layers charade upon charade [in] this dark story full of sinister characters. . . An ambitious, twisted story of adopted sisters that raises intriguing questions about privilege, poverty, and morality.” —Publishers Weekly
Certain books were “banned in Boston” at least as far back as 1651, when one William Pynchon wrote a book criticizing Puritanism.
