On Canadian Children’s Book Centre YA January Reading List 2019 One of CBC's Best Summer Reads for Children and Teens, 2015 PRAISE FOR We Are All Made of Molecules: “This savvy, insightful take on the modern family makes for nearly nonstop laughs.” -- Starred Review, Kirkus Reviews “Drama; humour, poignancy, and suspense are rarely found in such perfect proportions as in Governor General’s Literary Award–winner Susin Nielsen’s new novel about a teen odd couple forced together in a blended family situation. . . . We Are All Made of Molecules is chockablock with timely and weighty issues, yet it feels feather-light thanks in large part to some truly funny writing. Teens will be so busy turning pages they won’t even realize they’re thinking. This is stellar, top-notch stuff.” -- Starred Review, Quill & Quire “Stewart's analytical perspective and Ashley's sarcastic narration are as different as they are entertaining.” -- Publisher’s Weekly “By turns humorous and heartbreaking[,] . . . the contrast between the two characters makes for a compelling read, particularly as they begin to challenge and influence each other. . . . The book will appeal to fans of R.J. Palacio’s Wonder and Jo Knowles’s See You at Harry’s. . . . This work of realistic fiction should find a place in most libraries serving teens.” -- School Library Journal “[N]o one–-absolutely no one-–captures the lovable flaws of the pubescent human creature like Susin Nielsen. . . . A joyful, effortless read with some squeal-worthy moments for Nielsen fans who will recognize character cameos from past books.” -- The Globe and Mail
