Praise for 365 Days to Alaska

“Rigel’s big heart made my own heart ache. A funny and poignant fish-out-of-water tale with all the right feels and an important reflection on how we can all find our way home.”
John David Anderson, author of Ms. Bixby’s Last Day

“Rigel’s suspenseful journey toward finding a home for her brave and wild heart is one that will help us all discover the beauty and uniqueness of where we are.”
Francisco X. Stork, author of Marcelo in the Real World

“Readers will want to travel alongside Rigel as she struggles to survive the halls of middle school as well as she did the Alaskan bush. 365 Days to Alaska is a wonderful debut novel about compassion, belonging, and finding your way home when you feel lost in the wilderness.”
Lynne Kelly, author of Song for a Whale

“Cathy Carr’s debut is a poignant novel about family and truth, particularly the uncomfortable truths between fathers and daughters, told in a voice full of insight, love, and humor. She’s an author to watch, full of wisdom and exquisite heart.”
Carrie Jones, NYT bestselling author of the Need and Time Stoppers series
