The best novels entrance us by showing what is missed in life as much as by what's discovered; this is one.

Rich, intricate and alive with emotion ... Glass has used the edges and color blocks of her own life to build an honest portrait of sister-love and sister-hate

Louisa and Clem, the sisters at the very centre of this wonderfully vivid, truthful novel, are (as Louisa puts it) "not exactly soul mates. Historically we're kind of like England and France"... [a] quarter century of their lives unfolds, switching between their two voices, kept beautifully distinct by Glass.

The beauty of this story lies in its rich detail and the descriptions of the emotions and events that have shaped the sisters' complex relationship. A riveting and intricate read.

[A] promising extension of Glass's already impressive range

An engaging and intelligent page-turner

Glass is a wisely questioning, ardent, and artful novelist

Nowhere are the ebbs and flows, the complex and often ugly nuances, the bonds and breaks between sisters more achingly or more piercingly explored.

One doesn't read so much as sink into a Julia Glass novel, lulled into an escapist reverie by her mastery . . .

A sometimes stinging, always affecting tale of siblings who can't quite make it as friends

The voices of bookish Louisa and bold Clem - sisters 'as different as white chocolate and seaweed' - alternate in Glass's wrenching tale as the strong-willed sibs cope with love, loss and each other.

Glass writes with a bracing emotional and intellectual intensity, and . . . so accurately depicts the complexities of the sororal bond that it's no surprise to find that she hails from a sisterhood of two as well.

A lovely and heartbreaking book . . . Julia Glass writes the sort of novels you wish would go on forever; such is your immediate attachment to her impeccably drawn characters . . . [she] offers up intimate examinations of the lives on complex people, recognizable for their insecurities and strengths, failings and successes, humor and sadness, loves and loves lost.

An arresting story that is both thorny and complex ... A wonderful novelist will expose truths that elude us in the everyday. [Glass's] eye in I See You Everywhere takes in blind spots and makes them mesmerizing

Julia Glass is a writer firmly in control

Glass elegantly captures what it means to be an independent and spirited contemporary woman

Beautifully written

It is expertly written in its way, and oddly compelling - like a slushy movie you can't help but respond to

Moving and thoughtful ... Poignant and compelling, this lyrical novel lifts the veil on an internal world of love, rivalry and misunderstanding; an intricate depiction of sibling relationships

A beautifully evocative and intelligent novel
