Media Reviews
"Tender but never sentimental, wearing its intelligence in a low-slung style, Dinosaurs is a garden of earthly delights." -- Laura Mechling - The 25 Best Books to Read this Fall - Vogue
"Deceptively simple and quietly lovely, Dinosaurs is a compassionate character study of a loner who discovers community. " -- Adrienne Westenfeld - The Best Books of Fall 2022 - Esquire
"Effortlessly readable... there is something new and unusual about Dinosaurs." -- Sam Sacks - The Wall Street Journal
"Quietly powerful" -- Adam Begley - The Spectator
"This gentle, redemptive novel follows a damaged, trusting man as he heals through human connection and requited love… it leaves a warm afterglow and an optimism that lingers." -- Sally Morris - Daily Mail
"Dinosaurs’ solidifies a new phase of Millet’s career. . . . The spaciousness of the style makes the sense of loss richer and the questions posed — what constitutes moral action, how best can we help one another — at once simpler and more profound." -- Christine Smallwood - The New York Times
"Millet has perfected charged, science-based prose that takes a surgeon’s loupe to how people interact with nature." -- L. A. Taggart - The San Francisco Chronicle
"Dinosaurs is sharp and implacably funny; it evades the sanctimony you’d expect." -- Katy Waldman - The New Yorker
