Reviews
Praise for Mosquitoland : "In Mosquitoland , David Arnold has created one of the most unique narrative voices to show up in the world of young adult fiction. I don't remember life before Mim, and I don't want to. Mosquitoland is equal parts sharp, sad, and surreal. This book is genius, war paint and all." -John Corey Whaley, Printz-winning author of Where Things Come Back "David Arnold's writing is both heartfelt and hilarious. You will fall in love with Mim, even as her grand journey will keep you guessing.

Mosquitoland stings in all the right places, which is why it will no doubt be many teenagers'' new favorite book and win over the crustiest old-timer, too." -- USA Today "David Arnold combines brio with compassion in this captivating first novel, which holds surprises, big and small, right to the end. . . Illuminating" -- The Washington Post "David Arnold''s sparkling, startling, laugh-out-loud debut. . . speaks to the sweetness of life, the courage of love and the blinkers that adolescents may need to remove to see what is truly around them." -- Wall Street Journal "It''s a breath of fresh air when a novel like David Arnold''s Mosquitoland bucks the usual classifications and stands defiantly alone. . . like any odyssey worth embarking on, what the heroine--and the reader--finds along the way is far more interesting than we ever could have expected." -- Entertainment Weekly "Memorable" -- People "In Mosquitoland , David Arnold has created one of the most unique narrative voices to show up in the world of young adult fiction.
