by Andrew O'Hehir [Salon.com]

“..too much uninteresting dialogue about “mysterious” aliens to wade through – plus, oodles of nauseating jingoism and slow-motion heroism..”

“..for all of its sexual posturing and potential to be truly saucy and unconventional, Tanya Wexler's "Hysteria" is inoffensively pleasant..”
by Kevin Jagernauth [The Palylist]

“..though unabashedly melodramatic, "Rust and Bone" resists many of the pretty comforts of the genre..”
