The specificity of Love’s characterizations—the way the abuelas kick off their high heels, the brides’ enthusiasm, the children’s expansive gender expressions—offers vibrancy and immediacy, and under their community’s watchful eyes, Julián and Marisol find affection, acceptance, and room to grow.  —Publishers Weekly (starred review) 

Once again Love has brought us young characters who are free to live, play, and express themselves however they wish without conflict. An abundance of joy and love.  —The Horn Book (starred review)
