Praise for Girl Reflected in Knife
“Anica Mrose Rissi has written a mind-warping gut punch of a book. I raced through this one with equal parts dread and curiosity, desperate to see how Destiny’s story would explode and unravel.”—Emily X.R. Pan, New York Times bestselling author of The Astonishing Color of After and An Arrow to the Moon
“Girl Reflected in Knife is simply jaw-dropping. It is brave and unblinking, imaginative and revelatory. Here is a true fractured fairy tale in every sense, showing the immense power in the stories you tell to yourself and the stories you need to believe in order to survive."—Nova Ren Suma, New York Times bestselling author of The Walls Around Us and Wake the Wild Creatures
“Girl Reflected in Knife is beautiful and haunting, the kind of book that nests inside you, the kind of book you make space for and talk about and shove into the hands of everyone you know.” —Shaun David Hutchinson, award winning author of We Are the Ants
Praise for Anica Mrose Rissi's Novels

“Relatable and realistic, hopeful and empowering, Always Forever Maybe addresses an important subject: when ‘love’ isn’t what it seems.” —Deb Caletti, National Book Award finalist and Printz Award honoree
"Elegantly written with a keen insight into teen relationships....An absorbing tale of a fatal attraction and its consequences." —Kirkus
