"When you're used to reading stories about race where the author tries so hard to tie everything up in a pretty ribbon, it was refreshing to read a narrative where the author was comfortable leaving issues unsolved.
Nell’s story is timeless, but particularly important now. When so many of us are busy trying to prove that we are not the type of white person who is ignorant of their privilege, Nell is communicating with us how we can move forward earnestly toward progression." ~ Madeline Barbush, Independent Book Review

"This compelling coming of age novel is well structured and conveys an impassioned story that explores social issues in emotionally resonant ways that feel utterly authentic.
The setting and descriptions cleverly encourage the reader to think about issues such as fairness, equality and equity." ~ Literary Titan
" [Hey, White Girl] is an astute reflection of the country and the times, and will prove involving and revealing to both those who have lived them and new generations coming up.
Collections strong in civil rights fiction and social issues in 1960s America will find Hey, White Girl a powerful examination and a compelling work of fiction."
~ D. Donovan, Midwest Book Review
