Critics Review
Dazzling, funny as hell, poignant, all the things.
Dazzling, funny as hell, poignant, all the things.
Juliet Takes a Breath is absolutely breathtaking. This is the homegirl I’ve always wanted to see in literature, made flesh by Rivera’s pen.
Rivera captures both the disappointments and the possibilities that come with realising that your life’s solution cannot be figured out by someone else. * The New York Times Book Review *
Reflects early adult life … in all its messy, confusing splendor. * Publishers Weekly, starred review *
A whirlwind coming-of-age story that leaves one breathless. * Kirkus Reviews *
