Editorial Reviews

“Your writing is so colorful, such a pleasure to read. You’re creative! This strikes me as one of those books that’s supposedly written for kids, but that adults enjoy because of the underlying meaning. Looking forward to the release.” – Cara Bristol, author of contemporary and paranormal and erotic romance books

“Made me laugh, wonder, and cringe. Can’t even imagine how someone dies via a hot wax machine, but I’m sure it’s hilarious and horrible!” – Linda Morris, Romance writer for Entangled and Wild Rose Press

“Carrie Crain cleverly camouflages the obvious allusions to Dante’s Divine Comedy by the way she targets the interests of thirteen-year-old tree huggers rather than students of classical Italian literature. This book will appeal to the burgeoning inter-species fraternization crowd. Very clever!” – Graham Olgilvie (I’m nobody)

“The dialogue between characters is sarcastic and witty, and often the narrative picks up this breezy style of description of events as they unfold.” - John Hancock
