Feathered Quill Book Reviews
“Quill says: A riveting and enlightening story of a futuristic society with hidden secrets that sheds light on the intensity and severity of anxiety attacks and also gives an in-depth look into the coping mechanisms of teenagers thrown into unanticipated predicaments.”
The Prairies Book Review
“A solid, authentic SF tale with plenty of food for thought. A beautiful combination of SF action and individual angst.”
K. C. Finn, 5 Star Reader's Favorite
“I would recommend SPVCE to readers who enjoy sophisticated young adult works and emotionally conscious, character-led science fiction that doesn't hold back."
Vincent Dublado, 5 Star Reader's Favorite
"I sincerely recommend this work as a must-read for its brilliant study of anxiety and human nature in a futuristic time that is still not devoid of basic human problems.”
Jamie Michele, 5 Star Reader's Favorite
"SPVCE is rawly written and not everyone is going to be on board with Karen's literary style, but passing up this gem would be a mistake of universal proportions”
Grace Ruhara, 5 Star Reader's Favorite
"What I liked about SPVCE is the development of Maci Layton's character. I liked how fierce she is and that she does not allow anyone to undermine her. She stands her ground and roars like the lioness that she is.”
Asher Syed, 5 Star Reader's Favorite
"It took some time to get into the story because Karen is intentionally methodical in dropping just enough information to hold the reader's interest, and the only perspective we get is that of Maci, and poor Maci is so very broken... A beautifully perfectly imperfect human.”
