What People are Saying About This

Anna Maxymiw

Tense and sinuous, Goddess dissects the insidiousness of wellness culture and celebrity with a keen eye. Hemming’s story tightens its grip on readers, forcing us to examine our own doubts, desires, and search for belonging.

Christy Ann Conlin

Goddess is both a chronicle of the tentative young heart and an excoriating examination of the wellness and influencer industry. Written with sleek smooth style and a sly sense of humour, Deborah Hemming is Canada’s Sally Rooney.
