"A double exposure of heartbreaking beauty and electric prose, Something Kindred tenderly beckons you to a town haunted by memories and asks you to stay awhile." —Jas Hammonds, award-winning author of We Deserve Monuments

"In an emotionally charged debut that’s both bracing and sentimental, Burch composes an intimate generational portrait of a family of Black women who are tethered by their roots and grappling with the painful and permanent consequences of their efforts to break free from their histories." —Publishers Weekly

"Burch lovingly explores forgiveness and memory in this novel centering Black characters that has something—from paranormal discovery to queer romance in a small town—for everyone. A moving story about home with a supernatural twist, exploring what happens to those who leave and the ones left behind." —Kirkus Reviews

"Black, bisexual Jericka is an appealing and empathetic character, and her flirtatious romance with Kat builds naturally. In an otherwise realistic tale, Burch insightfully uses the echoes to highlight how trauma must be seen and acknowledged to begin healing." —Booklist

"Burch’s gothic coming-of-age YA debut will appeal to teens with an appetite for the paranormal. This would be a welcome addition to high school libraries." —School Library Journal
