Mel Walker liked Isha Coleman's review of The Analyst and The All-Star (Love of the Game #1): "Emotion that tugs at the heart strings and sneaks up on the soul. Walker walks a fine line between heartwarming and heartbreaking. From insightful to uplifting, Isiah and Daria are like a warm hug that dares you to be vulnerable."

Quotes by Mel Walker (?)

“The body is a connected community of millions of neurons and nerves. We kid ourselves that we’ll ever know how it all works. It’s like life. We do our best, but we’re always chasing after perfection we will never control. And your best chance to get where you want to be is to surround yourselves with a community that has your best interest at heart. You’ll need every one of them because the journey lasts a lifetime. A long journey that you can’t make by yourself.”
― Mel Walker, Doctor Know
