Boomerang is a masterfully crafted story about identity, family, and the meaning of home. The wholly original premise sucked me in, and the characters, all aching in different ways, kept me there. This is a YA novel that begs to be reread, talked about, and held close to your heart. -Rachel Lynn Solomon, author of You'll Miss Me When I'm Gone
This is my favorite kind of book . . . with characters worth every page turn. -Emery Lord, author of Open Road Summer and The Start of Me and You
A masterful weaving of intrigue and mystery that will keep you reading all night long. -Brigid Kemmerer, author of Letters to the Lost and More Than We Can Tell
This is a gorgeous examination of the painful and delicate connections formed in the midst of trauma and desperation. A caustic read in many ways, but one that will resonate with readers across a range of experiences and backgrounds. -Booklist
This is a quietly intense novel about friendship, love, and what it means to be a family. . . . Hand to fans of Adam Silvera's books and Carrie Mesrobian's Cut Both Ways. -School Library Journal
One young man coming to terms with who he was, who he is, and particularly, with whom he wants to be romantically. Though secondary characters take a backseat to Sean's self-discovery, brief glimpses of their backgrounds are enough to satisfy the reader. The book's idyllic resolution will appeal to fans of romance. Hand this dramatic coming-of-age tale to introspective teens seeking a contemporary puzzle. -VOYA
