Reviews

""An in-depth study of trauma told from an adolescent point of view; D.J. does indeed become a ""goat,"" but in different ways than anyone expects."" ""Such a fun read!"" ""The engaging, emotionally moving narrative deftly highlights the different ways people navigate the grieving process. The work is steeped in Jewish lifecycle traditions, but readers of all backgrounds will easily identify with the exploration of middle school stresses and friend and family relationships. The core Jewish values of life, learning, and family are well represented and accessible to all readers. A poignant mystery exploring coming-of-age themes."" ""What would have been a standard (though still appealing) whodunnit is elevated by the book's poignant exploration of grief and loss. White never exploits Rachel's death but masterfully delves into the different ways grief impacts people and how they respond... Readers will be initially intrigued by the potential mystery, but it's D.J.'s beautiful and painful growth that will stick with them.""
