Notes:

The Verbivore mentions the Target letter in her copy of the book. As part of the Target exclusive edition of The Grace Year, the book included a letter from author Kim Liggett to her readers that discusses an experience she had at a train station watching a family interact with a young girl who was going back to boarding school and how strangers assessed her while walking past - this was part of the spark for writing this book.

The Verbivore references the movie “V for Vendetta”. Here is the quote she was thinking of:

“We are told to remember the idea, not the man, because a man can fail. He can be caught, he can be killed and forgotten, but 400 years later, an idea can still change the world.”
