Innovative . . . devastating. . . . A brilliant, expansive exploration of family and grief.  
The Guardian

The book is rich with the texture of everyday living. It s these details that sing Betty to life and bring readers fully into the Appalachian landscape and the social milieu of Breathed.  
The Los Angeles Times

Breathtaking.
Vogue

Prepare to be undone. . . . This is one of those rare books . . . that is so stunning, so beautiful, so piercing, you could never forget it. . . . Wow, wow, wow.
Goop

Sumptuous and intimate.
O, The Oprah Magazine

This book will break your heart open, in the best way.
Good Housekeeping

A traditional beach read this is not unless your idea of a beach read involves ugly sobbing for a few hundred pages. But [Betty] is so beautiful you won't care about the tears.  
Entertainment Weekly

Gorgeous. . . . A plaintive coming of age narrative.  
Glamour

Fierce, vividly realized.
The Columbus Dispatch

Members of this hardscrabble family stride through their Ohio community like minor gods, leaving amazement in their wake. Highly recommended; a coming-of-age novel that is a treat for lovers of stylistic prose.
Library Journal

Epic, lyrical . . . McDaniel s sophomore work is a sweeping and heart-wrenching exploration of how we understand our parents lives and how our children will one day understand our own.
