"Full of heart and humor, this fantastical tale is a worthy addition to the wizarding-school genre." - People Magazine It’s as if Rowell turned the Harry Potter books inside out, and is showing us the marvelous, subversive stuffing inside." - Time Magazine "It’s a brilliantly addictive, genuinely romantic story about teenagers who can’t be neatly sorted into houses, coping with stress and loss and the confusion of just trying to be who they are. It's a powerful, politically minded allegory about sexual, ethnic and class identity - with a heady shot of teenage lust." - New York Times Book Review "Rowell imbues her magic with awe and spectacle.
