Today I woke up to 2 more 5-Star reviews of Burn Baby Burn Baby. The first, on Amazon, was titled as follows:
This book belongs alongside Laurie Halse Anderson's TWISTED and John Green's LOOKING FOR ALASKA
I mean, Looking for Alaska! How do I even deal with that!!?? My favourite Green, and one of my favourite reads of the last few years.
The second review was just as amazing...and from a fellow AW member...which THRILLS me. (-:
I keep getting punched in the feels in the most spectacular way. And I honestly believed this book would NEVER EVER be published.

Kevin Craig has written a gripping, heart-wrenching yet hopeful story. BURN BABY, BURN BABY is a novel about poverty, abuse, bullying, self-esteem, sexuality, friendship and loyalty, and personal growth. It’s got it all! I know...not an easy thing to pull off. But Kevin Craig does it seemingly effortlessly, in a story that will hook you right from the very first page. His characters are complex and flawed, relatable, and authentic, and while Craig tackles some very weighty issues, he does so with grace, intelligence and sensitivity.
