L.A. Parent Magazine lauded Summer of L.U.C.K. as a “good read,” and Readers’ Favorite praised it as “a tale that not only incorporates magic, carnivals, friendship, and fun but also manages to thread the plotline with pearls of wisdom about life, bullying, self-worth, and self-esteem.” Ready or Not, according to middle grade/YA author Frank Morelli, “is filled with twists, turns, magic, time travel, and a healthy dose of courage from its deeply authentic cast of characters.” Greg Pattridge, reviewer for Always in the Middle, called The Chambered Nautilus, “a tale full of adventure, magic, and the power of never giving up.”
