Going Bovine

"Libba Bray not only breaks the mold of the ubiquitous dying-teenager genre--she smashes it and grinds the tiny pieces into the sidewalk. For the record, I'd go anywhere she wanted to take me."--The New York Times

"Offer this to fans of Douglas Adams's Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy seeking more inspired lunacy."--Publishers Weekly, Starred Review

"An unforgettable, nearly indefinable fantasy . . . wholly unique, ambitious, tender, thought-provoking, and often fall-off-the-chair funny."--Booklist, Starred Review

"Readers will have a great time."--The Horn Book

"It's a trip worth taking."--SLJ

"Here's one book about dying that has a wicked sense of humor."--The Denver Post

"A laugh-out-loud tear-jerking fantastical voyage into the meaning of what is real in life."--VOYA

"A very messed-up book, but in a good way. . . .Hilarious, random, surreal and thought-provoking."--Guys Lit Wire
