Praise for Saint Ivy

Feelings, life, and people are allowed to be complicated in beautiful ways in this page-turner.
Kirkus Reviews

A keenly observed portrait of a girl who goes way overboard on a good thing.
Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

“A truly memorable novel that makes the sometimes quiet and unasked questions of growing up and figuring yourself out feel big and bold and heart-shifting and profound. Part page-turning mystery, part emotional character study, I loved every poignant, intimate, and wise page. And I loved Ivy and her deeply relatable journey most of all.”
Corey Ann Haydu, author of Eventown and One Jar of Magic

“I loved this wise, warm and utterly relatable story about kindness— topic that feels especially timely. Once again, Laurie Morrison has created a complex, authentic character readers will eagerly embrace.”
Barbara Dee, author of Maybe He Just Likes You and My Life in the Fish Tank
