Praise for Fragile:
"Katsaropoulos does a wonderful job of developing the characters and intertwining their stories. The tale he creates is intriguing and attention-grabbing. Unlike anything you have read before . . . !"
--Kam Aures, Rebeccasreads.com
"Fragile is a beautifully-written novel . . . the writing is uniquely refreshing. After reading Fragile, I found myself feeling very contemplative. Readers will enjoy Fragile and will find meaning in it that applies to their own lives . . . Highly recommended."
--Paige Lovitt, Reader Views
Praise for Summer Sanctuary:
"Summer Sanctuary exudes a strong voice for the two central characters . . . they learn what it means to measure a person's worth not based on circumstances, but on the will to survive. Gray has captured the essence of what it means to be a young teen--wanting to grow as an individual while needing the security of a home and loving family. Summer Sanctuary can help guide teens through the difficult transition between childhood and becoming adults."
--Kayleen Reusser, author of Taylor Swift--a Blue Banner Biography
"What a big-hearted story, told with affection and humor. I loved spending time with Matthew and his family and with Dinah, the girl who looks in from outside. Like Dinah, young readers will find a place of welcome and comfort, a true sanctuary, in the pages of this book. Like Matthew, they'll discover something important about friendship and independence."
--Helen Frost, Printz Honor Award-winning author of Keesha's House
