"Readers will eagerly flip pages to hear the sins of the Sullivan sisters and love the tale each one spins. This book has a long shelf life ahead of it, and can be easily offered to any teen as an excellent read."
*Starred review, School Library Journal

“Sweet, sad, wonderfully quirky, and delightfully original,
Natalie Standiford’s beautifully honest book made me
laugh in surprise, nod in understanding, and wish that
I were part robot so that my heart would stop breaking.”
