'One of the best YA writers working today.' -- John Green 'Anyone who thinks YA books can't also be great literature needs to read this author.' -- Irish Times 'King understands and writes teen anxieties like no other, resulting in difficult, resonant, compelling characters and stories.' -- Kirkus 'Maybe there are writers more adept than King at capturing the outrageous and outraged voice of teenagers, but it's difficult to think of one.' -- New York Times 'A.S. King shows a deep understanding of teen anxieties and writes with streetwise humour, tenderness and originality...Hers is a magical style that dances off the page.' -- Otago Daily Times 'Switch is mind-bending, life-affirming and brilliant. Nobody maps the wilderness of growing up like A. S. King.' * Vikki Wakefield * 'As Switch explores the spectrum between isolation and connection, it becomes an unsettling but emotionally resonant novel for our own unsettling times.' * BookPage *
