'What a revelation this young writer is. He is doing something no other male First Nations novelist has attempted: the YA Blak queer genre that is a glimpse into another world view, at once confronting yet heartwarming.' - Australian Book Review 'It takes only a handful of pages to get drawn into Jamie's world as he confronts complicated feelings around buried resentment, racism and the realisation that life is about second chances. Lonesborough has created a cast of fully rounded characters exploring extremely heavy themes with hope and humour.' - Francis Atkinson, Sydney Morning Herald 'We Didn't Think It Through is a beautifully raw and eye-opening coming of age novel about a boy trying to navigate a world that isn't fair or kind, but that is ours.' - Reading Time
