"This intoxicating tale about obsession and four isolated sisters remains my top favorite. The writing is lyrical and hypnotic, the style dark and rich. A subtle masterpiece."
"Francesca Lia Block's writing is pure brilliance. The seductive sentences seem to radiate off the page with an unworldly glow. Adult readers are missing out if you fail to read one of her books."
"Enchanting. Genius. Touching. This remains a childhood favorite. I think the writing is very witty, and adults should enjoy all the wonderful hidden metaphors."
"Stunning. Nabokav took a taboo subject and split it open so that we could see just how human the matter is. You can neither love nor hate Humbert once you are finished, that is the brilliance."
