Ellis once again proves she is a master storyteller. Readers will remember Farrin and Sadira long after the final page has been read".--Quill & Quire Starred Review by Ken Setteringon, author of the Stonewall Honor Book Branded by the Pink Triangle "Ellis skillfully introduces readers to the social and political backdrop, showing in troubling detail how fear, suspicion, and historical animosities fragment Farrin's world and limit her freedom....Secondary characters provide fascinating windows into other perspectives and call attention to Iran's heterogeneity, creating a multidimensional portrait of corruption and cruelty, resistance and compassion."--The Horn Book Magazine "Sparse and eloquently-written, this short historical novel is both beautiful and heartbreaking."--School Library Journal "A firm grounding in Iranian history, along with the insight and empathy Ellis brings to the pain of those whose love is decreed to be immoral and unnatural, make this a smart, heartbreaking [novel.]"--Publishers Weekly "[I]narguably powerful...A book study guide is included and will help encourage much needed discussion."--Booklist "[T]he portrait painted of 1980s Iran's political climate--and in particular the situation of gay and lesbian people and political prisoners--is haunting."--Kirkus Reviews "In this riveting love story based on true events, Deborah Ellis transports readers to Iran in 1988 just nine years after the Islamic Revolution...Readers will find this powerful book both compelling and chilling."--Dragon Lode International Books "[A]n accessible text which can be enjoyed by a variety of readers due to its simple writing style. The author's note describing the history of Iran is especially useful to those unfamiliar with this history and the subject matter of the novel is one that not only encourages individual research, but also fills a large gap in cultural LGBTQ literature."--Resource Links "This is a thought-provoking story inviting readers to ponder the interplay of cultural, moral, and sexual issues in different countries around the globe."--International Reading Association, Reading Today Online "As more and more states strike down anti-gay marriage laws, Moon at Nine is a chilling reminder of the suffering of too many others...its importance is hard to deny."--BookDragon, Smithsonian Asian Pacific American Center "Moon at Nine is the romantic adventure tale longed for by queer teenagers prowling the school library for stories that more closely resemble their own."--Plenitude Magazine "Deborah Ellis manages to avoid stepping on cultural taboos through rigorous research and editing, and her story hits on universal themes such as family secrets, friendships, relationships and coming-of-age...more than simply an LGTBQ novel or historical fiction...a multi-faceted hybrid that can be enjoyed by both teens and adults...It is powerfully grounded in the setting of Tehran, and depicts the beauty of falling in love and the cruelty and coldness of power in the hands of outside forces."--Ottawa Review of Books "True to form, Deborah Ellis has crafted a stark, riveting and uncompromising account of life in a country and era that is markedly different from our own...Its heartbreaking and unflinching honestly will both engage readers and create heightened awareness."--Canadian Children's Book News "Basing her book on a true story, Ellis has written a heartbreaking tale of prejudice and injustice...Highly Recommended."--CM Magazine "[A] deftly crafted work of fiction...An extraordinary and original novel..."--Midwest Book Review "Moon at Nine is a tense and riveting YA novel."--The International Educator "A story that illuminates, astounds and perhaps will grow empathy for other cultures and sexualities."--49th Shelf "Moon at Nine is quite frankly one of the most powerful love stories I have ever read...With a backdrop of an almost post-war Iran, Farrin and Sadira are vibrant and inspiring characters consciously deciding to live in the moment by clinging to each other in the face of great opposition. Ellis' writing is passionate and informative, creating a realistic and frightening picture of Iran's reaction to homosexuality."--Amy's Marathon of Books "Ten years have passed since the Shah was overthrown in Iran, and Farrin, 15, struggles against the oppressive rule of politics, teachers, and her family's anti-revolutionary secrets. But her budding clandestine romance with Sadira threatens her security most of all; homosexuality is punishable by death. This novel for teens at their formative age exposes the persecution gay lovers face worldwide today."--Skipping Stones Magazine "Multi award-winning author Deborah Ellis excels in creating stories of determination in the face of adversity and social injustice. Here, she presents us with a sensitive and passionate tale based on the true life experiences...Beautifully told..."--Quick Brown Fox "Heart-stirring, believable, and ultimately heartbreaking, this is a must-read."--Youth Services Book Review
