Los Angeles Review of Books weighs in on The Job of the Wasp, saying:
"Winnette’s book is in fact somewhere on the edge of the world, away from what is familiarly human. As the children hang out on this edge, alone, haunted, and threatened, the events that punctuate their lives...puncture the reader at her core."
