Reviews

""Lori Miller Kase's debut YA thriller, THE ACCIDENT, will keep readers glued to the chair until the final pages... Kase's writing is descriptive, her teen voice rings true, and the emotional landscape she creates is filled with nuance."" --Christine Pakkala, Author of Jasmine and Maddie ""The prose is charged with the restless energy of first love, family devotion and the ache of choices too heavy for young shoulders. It's an intimate, electric and thrilling read."" --Stacey Mindich, Producer of Dear Evan Hansen ""Kase knows how to get inside the mind of her teenage protagonist Hannah... I felt Hannah's desperation so intensely I found myself fully engaged and speculating wildly right alongside her. This book felt like a modern YA Jane Eyre!"" --Patrick D. Joyce, Author of Back in the USSR and Strawberry Fields
