Critics Review
Written with humour and understanding, this is the book young people need. * Sara Pascoe *
With every verse of her debut, Cuthew shouts down the shame, chips away at the period taboo, and firmly establishes herself as a bold and vital new voice in feminist literature. * Samantha Shannon *
Blood Moon is one of the best YA debuts I’ve read in years. Moving, compelling and bold, it filled me with such hope. It’s a very special book. * Louise O’Neill *
A bloody brilliant book! – Gabby Edlin, CEO and Founder of Bloody Good Period
This is female adolescence, crystalized. And it’s astounding. – Lauren Myracle, New York Times bestselling author
