“Reed’s well-paced mystery is imbued with comedy and heartfelt moments. Quinn is a smart and spirited protagonist and narrator whose wry humor and can-do attitude will make her relatable to young readers. Throughout, Reed depicts Quinn’s struggles with migraines, as well as other characters’ health concerns . . . with honesty and sensitivity. . . . The novel’s positive portrayal of young, STEM-inclined female characters is refreshing as well . . . A clever, uplifting, and entertaining story.” —Kirkus Reviews

“Constellation Clues offers a strong protagonist, an engaging plot, and a mystery to keep young readers pondering. I loved the interesting tidbits on constellations, especially the myths about the Pleiades. Like the seven sisters in the sky, each of the three Knight sisters was a star, excelling in their respective fields. I loved how Quinn proved her talents as an ‘artistic scientist.’ . . . The passionate, sassy Vivica and the caring, dependable Georgie stole my heart, as did Tiya and Xavier with their endearing quirks. . . . The upheavals of middle school drama, the thrilling adventures inside dark caves, and the cryptic messages from the stars added to the charm. I also admired the positive message the story conveyed regarding inclusivity. Constellation Clues: The Cipher of the Seven Stars is an engaging read with both entertainment and educational value.” —Readers’ Favorite (5 stars)

“[A] charming, coming of age story . . . Reed’s pleasantly descriptive, vivid writing style is as spirited as her lead character. Quinn’s narrative voice is distinctive from the first page and will keep readers emotionally invested in her journey.” —The BookLife Prize
