* FIVE STARRED REVIEWS *

* A LAMBDA LITERARY AWARD FINALIST *

Perfect for fans of Adam Silvera and Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe, this suspenseful queer YA romance from critically acclaimed author K. Ancrum reimagines the tale of Icarus as a star-crossed love story between a young art thief and the son of the man he's been stealing from--think Portrait of a Thief for YA readers.

Icarus Gallagher is a thief. He steals priceless art and replaces it with his father's impeccable forgeries. For years, one man--the wealthy Mr. Black--has been their target in revenge for his role in the death of Icarus's mother. To keep their secret, Icarus adheres to his own strict rules to keep people, and feelings, at bay: Don't let anyone close. Don't let anyone touch you. And, above all, don't get caught.

Until one night, he does. Not by Mr. Black but by his mysterious son, Helios, now living under house arrest in the Black mansion. Instead of turning Icarus in, Helios bargains for something even more dangerous--a friendship that breaks every single one of Icarus's rules.

As reluctance and distrust become closeness and something more, they uncover the gilded cage that has trapped both their families for years. One Icarus is determined to escape. But his father's thirst for revenge shows no sign of fading, and soon it may force Icarus to choose: the escape he's dreamed of, or the boy he's come to love. Reaching for both could be his greatest triumph--or it could be his downfall.

"The sparse prose in this unconventional, must-read of a trauma-infused borderline thriller is packed with emotional breadth." --Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"In this intimate poetic reimagining of the Icarus myth, Ancrum crafts a subversive triumph that is a love letter both to healing from trauma and to the importance of connection and empathy." --Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"Beautifully written...Psychologically acute, subtle, and sophisticated." --ALA Booklist (starred review)

"In her extraordinary fifth novel, Icarus, K. Ancrum performs a confident high-wire act, balancing the weighty manifestations of connection, desire, and contradiction." --BookPage (starred review)

"Gradually, many secrets are revealed, suspense builds, and the romantic tension between the characters ratchets up--all of it enhanced by the vivid prose in this refreshingly succinct novel." --The Horn Book

"Both romance and thriller fans will likely be gripped by this memorable love story, tinged with mythology, built around a mystery made up of bitter secrets between the two families." --The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books (starred review)

Way too big
Size: 6-9 Months Infant, Color: Mariposa White Leather
Adorable but sizing is WAY off. These are massive and look like toddler shoes on our (tall and bigger footed) 7 month old.

Cute but flimsy soles
Size: 9-12 Months Infant, Color: Mariposa Light Pink Leather, Size: 9-12 Months Infant, Color: Mariposa Light Pink Leather
I wanted to love these because they're the few leather options out there. Unfortunately, the soles are made of a flimsy material that came apart after less than 2 weeks of wear. Not sure how long they'll last...

Fits like a sock
We bought these for the Florida beaches, not knowing whether our beach would have debris, shells, or the common straw sticking up to assault your feet! We bought them for our one year old and she loved them. The sole is thin and moveable, but still protected her feet. Our beach ended up being pristine and clean, so she didn’t really need them. We let her wear them at home in the grass because she was that obsessed with them. Nice product and we’d buy them again, if needed!

Favorite Robezz shoe style
These are great, flexible sole that is a step up from the leather soles. This is a rubber gripper sole that protects the foot but gives great moment for new walkers! The fabric was better in person than I expected.
