Thanks a Lot, Universe (2021)
(Thanks a Lot, Universe, book 1)
Chad Lucas
"Thanks a Lot, Universe demonstrates how you don't always know what your peers are going through, and how powerful kindness is. This honest portrayal of family trauma, changing friendships, and big emotions tugged at my heartstrings. Brian and Ezra will stick with me for a long time!"

Bump (2021)
Matt Wallace
"I love kids with big dreams, and MJ is a heroine to root for. Bump introduces readers to the world of professional wrestling while also telling a story about grief, friends that become family, and finding your voice. An entertaining and heartwarming read!"
