A gem of modern literature." -- Guardian "What sings and soars in this gorgeously told tale is Green's mastery of language and the sweet, rough edges of Pudge's voice." --Kirkus "Alive with sweet, self-deprecating humor." -- SLJ "Funny, sad, inspiring, and always compelling." -- Bookpage "The spirit of Holden Caulfield lives on." -- Kliatt "Stunning conclusion . . . one worthy of a book this good." -- Philadelphia Inquirer
