Critics Review

  • Tillie Cole ripped my heart out and then put it back together with a thousand kisses. Her writing is achingly beautiful and brilliant beyond words. Consider yourself warned: A Thousand Boy Kisses will leave you wrecked in the best way possible

    Jess Daniels, USA Today bestselling author
  • I highly recommend this book with all my heart. Be prepared to ugly cry. Possibly more than once. I can almost guarantee that you’ll be full-out sobbing at some point. But know that it is absolutely worth every single tear, because the ending was more beautiful than I could ever have imagined
