Three great new reviews of THE MONKEYFACE CHRONICLES!


"This book is a wild ride! It starts with a kid who is picked on at school and doesn't fight back, so I was totally on board. Then it goes careening off in several different directions.

The story is both small, in the sense of having characters that are very real, and epic, in the scale of the story. It reminds me of the books of Paul Quarrington and John Irving, creating an over-the-top yet close-to-real world."

"The Monkeyface Chronicles is a riveting read aimed at the YA crowd. It's a story of adolescent revenge played out against a backdrop of the extremes of modern life. The book is a real page turner and hard to put down. . . . If it were a TV program it would come complete with a warning about everything. But, oddly likeable."

"A dark story about bullying with numerous twists, that still finishes with a hopeful yet bittersweet ending. It reminds us that no matter how messed up our families may be, often, they are are our strongest and most important bonds."
