RaveThe Seattle TimesEvents unfold quickly in crisp, clear prose like a hot flame on dry kindling ... The action moves at a frenetic clip, and amid all the activity, a grinning monster lurks ... Griffith’s brutal, unsparing style suits the brevity of the book, and makes the cascading small encounters with ableism, as well as the tense climax, truly frightening. The narrative feels compacted, but not crushed. Griffith deftly reveals only what is significant, creating an effect that’s like how Mara describes a correctly executed karate strike ... If you have ever had that moment of realization that someone is stronger than you, has power over you and could do you harm either because they mean to or because they just aren’t paying attention, So Lucky is for you. It is full of power and healing, like a forest fire that will burn every single thing to the ground to make way for fresh green growth.
