I'm bracing myself, since Kirkus hates everything. Kirkus called Robin McKinley's Deerskin "lurid, turgid fluff." (I didn't look that phrase up-- I'm not Robin McKinley, and that's still stuck in my head for all eternity.)

But hey, lots of books don't get reviewed in Kirkus at all, and that would be worse.

Lurid, turgid fluff? Whoever said that about Deerskin is a crack-smoking dork, and shall not be redeemed even if they praise your book.

But I hope they do anyway.
