Reviews
"In an intelligent, colloquial voice that speaks with a writer's love of language and an observant eye, Mattie details the physical particulars of people's lives as well as deeper issues of race, class, and gender as she strains against family and societal expectations. . . . Many teens will connect with Mattie's fierce yearning for independence and for stories, like her own, that are frank, messy, complicated, and inspiring." --Booklist (starred review), "A Northern Light is a story as big and bold as the North Woods where it is set. Deft foreshadowing and a real-life mystery keep the story moving along." -- BookPage, "The author's ability to recast the murder mystery as a cautionary tale for Mattie makes the heroine's pending decision about her future the greatest source of suspense." --Publishers Weekly (starred review), "A breathtaking tale, complex and often earthy, wrapped around a true story. Donnelly's characters ring true to life." -- School Library Journal (starred review), Jennifer Donnelly has populated her first young-adult novel with a community of distinctive characters who ring rich and true., "Riveting. . . . The author's ability to recast the murder mystery as a cationary tale for Mattie makes the heroine's pending decision about her future the greatest source of suspense."
