Praise FOR sari’s WORK

I had the honor of working with Sari Wilson as a developmental editor. A deeply thoughtful editor, Sari quickly gets to the big idea of a piece, what might be missing, and how pacing, structure, and narrative arc can work in harmony to deliver something not just high-quality but also unforgettable. Beyond her excellence and creativity, Sari is a total joy.” — Kristin Lewis, Senior Editorial Director, Scholastic

“Sari Wilson has created a dark and beautiful world in these pages filled with complex and fascinating characters. GIRL THROUGH GLASS is an impressive debut novel that will thrill readers with its steadily mounting tension, which builds, layer upon layer, to a surprising and satisfying conclusion.” - John Searles, bestselling author of HELP FOR THE HAUNTED and STRANGE BUT TRUE

“Powerful. Gripping. Incandescent. These are only a few of the words circling my mind after reading GIRL THROUGH GLASS. This beautifully written novel drew me into the rarified world of dance, filled with passion, glory and heartbreak. As powerful storytelling kept me turning the pages, Wilson’s extraordinary voice whispered to me about the things that both bind and divide us: desire, ambition and love. This book will stay in my heart for a long time.” - Jean Kwok, New York Times bestselling author of GIRL IN TRANSLATION
