“Foos’ prose has an ethereal quality as she describes the person in the woods, and the allure surrounding her always. . . . This novel is not so much a puzzle to be solved as it is an experience to be had. Something to be tasted and consumed, crumbs falling by the wayside along with our useless insecurities.” —NPR
“[The Blue Girl] winds beautiful prose with the stark, sorrowful imagery of loss, misunderstanding, and the ever-tightening, close-to-breaking ties of family.” —Full Stop
“Told in alternating points of view, The Blue Girl explores how these relationships both define and confine each of the women. Foos has crafted a surreal story that is suffocating yet utterly compelling.” —Shelf Awareness
“Laurie Foos is a weird Midas—everything she touches turns strange. . . . Each novel is as hysterical, weird, and heartbreaking as the last.” —The Rumpus
