Reading her is refreshing after the bravado... of the American style." "Cody’s dialogue is always funny and full of purpose, and here she’s found her perfect protagonista creative mangler of platitudes and uncontrollable shredder of pomp and hypocrisy," and "Great dialogue as ever and some gorgeous imagery. It all added up to a book I'm sorry to close." (About LADY BAG.) -- Newgate Callendar, New York Times Book Review; Mat Coward, The Morning Star; Peter Lovesey, MWA Grandmaster Book Review 2: "Eva is a wondrous creation – an incorrigible innocent in a story that crackles with energy. Super Cody." "It's like a rock-and-roll version of Pilgrim's Progress. Eva is rude, crude, funny, touching and perhaps the boldest creation to land in recent crime fiction." (About BUCKET NUT.) -- Kirkus Reviews; The Philadelphia Inquirer Book Review 3: "Give me more books like Gimme More." "Probably the greatest rock'n'roll novel ever."
