Critics called her debut What The Woods Keep “a thoughtful and compelling horror fantasy” (BCCB), “a narrative that will keep readers enthralled” (Booklist), and “a new angle to the “small town with a secret” genre” (VOYA). What The Woods Keep was a Readings bestseller, Borrow Box’s Book of the Month, and included on multiple “most anticipated”/”best of” lists such as “Books that made our skin crawl” and “100 great reads by Australian women” by Readings, “Choice reads for younger eyes” by Sydney Morning Herald and “13 great Australian speculative fiction releases of 2018” as named by Australian Speculative Fiction. A Czech edition of What The Woods Keep is forthcoming with Dobrovsky.
