"""Kilbourne brilliantly builds the tension in the story as each character is forced to face their deepest emotions, from desire and apathy at the beginning to anger and the guilt that comes from generational trauma later in the story.""--James Steeves ""YA Dude Books"""

“[40 Days in Hicksville] is worth a read, and is a great example of the power of a well-written dual-perspective narrative.” -- Lindsey Baird * Canadian Review of Materials * “Kilbourne brilliantly builds the tension in the story as each character is forced to face their deepest emotions, from desire and apathy at the beginning to anger and the guilt that comes from generational trauma later in the story.” -- James Steeves * YA Dude Books *
