Six More Months of June (2024)
Daisy Garrison
"SIX MORE MONTHS OF JUNE is an incredible portrayal of the last days of high school, the complicated tangle of love and friendship, and how time can be both too fast and too slow. Daisy has written the book I've always wanted to write, and the YA world is very fortunate to have her."

Look (2020)
Zan Romanoff
"For fans of Nina LaCour and Mary H. K. Choi comes "a gorgeous exploration of Los Angeles, love, and how a girl can be torn down and put herself back together, one image at a time."
