Reception
Wylie's debut has received starred reviews from The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books and Library Media Connection, which calls it "a truly original and refreshing novel" with "deft prose [that] makes each page a treasure to read." Canadian Children's Book News, in a glowing review, calls it "a beautifully written and powerful novel" that "sensitively explores how a family copes with a serious illness." In positive reviews, Kirkus and School Library Journal write, respectively, that All These Lives is "a tight, even gripping chronicle of the way one girl grapples with domestic catastrophe" that "will speak to teens who may be going through similar tough family situations."
