Wish Upon a Rosie by Eliza Gordon
"This is by far one of the best stories I’ve read in a long while. Rosie is a character who make you cry, laugh and inspires you to be better. Eliza wrote a beautiful character and conveys the love of service in a way that makes you wish that “Wish Up" Read more of this review »

"I read an earlier pre-publication version of this novel and it is just delightful. Warm, funny, and slightly shocking at times."
Wish Upon a Rosie by Eliza Gordon
"Full of vibrant energy, this book features a spunky protagonist I’d like to keep in my life after the last page. Sometimes brash, but also nuanced and beautiful, it was a fun read.

5 ⭐️s—I highly recommend it.

Quotes by Eliza Gordon  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“You do everything everyone tells you to do because you’re afraid that if you say no, they won’t like you.”
Eliza Gordon, Must Love Otters

“just because society dictates certain norms and delivers them on a packhorse of guilt, it doesn’t mean we have to climb on. You deserve to be treated with respect by everyone you choose to have in your life. You deserve to be accepted for who you are. You have the right to be yourself because there is only one you. I think Dr. Seuss said it, didn’t he? Something about there is no one you-er than you?” She smiles. “My young friend, if someone does not grant you the respect you are due as a human being, no matter what their relationship to you, friend or blood, you have no obligation to suffer their presence in your life.”
Eliza Gordon, Neurotica

“This is why I suck at meditation. I have the attention span of a flea that forgot to take his ADHD meds.”
Eliza Gordon, Must Love Otters
