Critics Review
“Richly atmospheric and full of hard-won grace, The Edge of Forever is the perfect summer novel. A coming-of-age story about grief, resilience, and the hope that finds us when we least expect it, Edge of Forever will linger in your heart like a West Texas sunset.”–Sarah Bird, New York Times Bestselling Author
“Any of the book’s many themes and tropes could have served as the premise for its own book, but Browne manages to keep the plot from feeling overstuffed. Solid character development, thoughtful metaphors (“my plan turned into a wide, stormy ocean of questions without good answers”), and lyrical writing keep the pages turning.” – The Horn Book Magazine
“Readers who enjoy character-driven stories will enjoy rooting for tender Maisie and following her ups and downs.”–Booklist
“Fans of Dusti Bowling and Dan Gemeinhart will likely find the folksy first-person narrative and energetic, multi-pronged plot satisfying. …Maisie’s spirited, self-aware voice comes through loud, clear, and sincere.”–Shelf Awareness
