Review
"This book is, perhaps, one of the best this reviewer has read because it takes a classic plotline - that of metamorphosis - and makes it original, new, and refreshing. Girls Don't Fly is a book about seeing a chance and grabbing it with both hands, about disappointment and love and new realizations." - Reviewer: Sara Guan, Teen Reviewer VOYA
"As Myra navigates from one trauma to the next, we know she is a princess in a scullery maid's disguise. Her cast of supporting characters is equally entertaining: sniveling Erik, sarcastic Melyssa, rough and tumble siblings, and, of course, Prince Charming, incognito as a graduate student. Funny, sensitive, loyal and endearing, Myra is a heroine to remember." - Reviewer: Laura Woodruff VOYA
"Chandler… writes with a wry sense of humor and a style that shows an understanding and love of the teenage condition." - Rosmarie Howard The Deseret News
"A smart soaring story, Myra's evolution is one that engages the mind and touches the heart." - Ally Condie, author of Matched
"'I...think perfect is something you agree to, not something that happens': Money line from @krischandlerese 's lovely, funny GIRLS DON'T FLY." Scott Renshaw of City Weekly Magazine
