Critics Review
“This collection offers a refreshingly original vision, reminding us at every turn that our surfaces rarely reflect the depths of our human reality.”
“Breathe a sigh of relief at the appearance of Stacey Richter, a hip, pop culture-obsessed fiction writer who actually knows what she’s doing. My Date with Satan establishes Richter as a talent to be reckoned with. She writes like a discoverer who has found the country she’s been looking for.”

“Richter’s writing has an irony that is familiar yet fresh; her stories are extremely well written and engaging.”
“This collection offers a refreshingly original vision, reminding us at every turn that our surfaces rarely reflect the depths of our human reality.”
