REVIEWS & MEDIA

Praise for Eighty Days To Elsewhere:

"..a book that captures the spirit of travel, the cosiness of book shops, and the whimsy of summer is either very serendipitous or total genius."

--NUVO Magazine

“Dyer takes readers on a journey of self-discovery that spans several continents, engages with various cultures, and touches on urgent sociopolitical issues… A charming story detailing a woman’s self-discovery through travel.”

--Kirkus Reviews

“This inspired series launch from dyer (Finding Fraser) offers readers a journey around the world that is both entertaining and enlightening. Fans of new adult romance will enjoy watching Romy discover not only new landscapes but herself in the process.”

--Library Journal

"...Dyer keeps readers engaged with scenic descriptions and a sweet, slow-burning love story. This is a delightful romp."

--Publisher's Weekly

Praise for Finding Fraser:

More praise for A Walk Through A Window:

“OMG! What can I say? This was an awe-inspiring book – no words to describe it! Go buy it, right now! My serious opinion is that this book was one of my all time favourites. I loved it. It’s thrilling, it’s detailed, and it totally draws you in. I actually ended up crying at one point; yes, it can happen! I would give it a gazillion stars, but since our reviews are out of 5, then I give it FIVE EXPLODING STARS”

— Rachael (age 12) Kids WWWrite Issue #46, for ‘A Walk Through A Window’

“If you want fantastical, suspenseful fiction with your history, then a book by kc dyer is your route. In A Walk Through A Window, she’s woven tales of Canada’s diverse beginnings, with a very contemporary story about a teenager whose imagination needs a little jolt of inspiration not readily offered in today’s information age.”
— The Globe and Mail
