Finding Melody Sullivan is a must-read. Rothchild offers readers a multifaceted narrative of a teen-aged girl navigating friendship, identity, family, and grief, in the context of witnessing a military occupation. Rothchild treats all her characters with respect and compassion, and the result is a deeply human story which is, at turns enraging, humorous, surprising, and always honest and authentic.—Jen Marlowe, author, playwright, filmmaker
