“This is a nuanced, compassionate portrait of what it’s like to live with a disability and of a girl who’s much more than her limitations.”
―Horn Book Magazine Reviews

“Parker has just the right degree of acerbic wit to be likable even when she’s bitchy, and when she falls apart, her insight into her own character is heartbreaking.”
BCCB

―Publishers Weekly (Full Review)

A Few Bloggers

“THIS IS MY BEST BOOK OF 2015! Mind-blowing. Beautiful. Superbly written.” — The Book’s Buzz (Full Review)

“Even though some of the specifics were different between me growing up (and maybe even now) and Parker Grant, it was like Mr. Lindstrom held up a mirror in front of my face, with the reflection screaming at me ‘THIS IS YOU!’” — Life Unscripted (Full Review)

“I absolutely loved this book. I cried, I laughed, I was enlightened by this book. I totally loved the lead character, she was brash, funny, witty, ballsy and oh so real.  This is going on my top favorites of 2015 list.” — Bewitching Bibliophile (Full Review)

“Overall Not If I See You First was an emotionally charged debut that will take you on a roller-coaster of emotions and soon enough you won’t want it to end. I highly recommend this to literally everyone, go read it!” — Literary-ly Obsessed (Full Review)
