Reviews
"Maggie's voice is sharp and quick-witted, and Ben's persistent exuberance provides an excellent foil...Funny, sweet, and hopeful."--Kirkus Reviews
"Music enthusiasts who enjoy a smoldering romance will love this novel."--Booklist
"The story is fast-paced, with Maggie's intermittent vision serving as an intriguing mystery. Maggie is a solid, well-developed character and shows tremendous growth in the story. The dialogue and Maggie's inner thoughts are hilarious and provide insight to the challenges anyone, especially a teen, must experience with a life-changing medical event Teens who enjoy stories about people overcoming adversity, complete with a satisfying conclusion, will enjoy this novel."--School Library Journal
"This book shows the struggle of redefining yourself after losing what you think of as the one thing' that makes you who you are. It is not preachy or overly optimistic about the challenges Maggie faces, but it has humor and characters that are well developed (even the adults). Give this to students who like Me, Earl and the Dying Girl or anything with humor and music."--VOYA
