"The singing energy of Welsh literature is here grafted onto Australian colloquial informality and laid-back irony ... Bettina Kaiser's distinctive black-and-white design and illustrations are a precise fit with both the form and the content of Reid's text, in an inventive collaboration between writer and artist." – Kerryn Goldsworthy, Sydney Morning Herald
" While Reid's gift for imagery is a major strength, it is her empathy for humankind that makes her a truly intriguing writer." – Alison Clifton, Stylus Lit

" What is so remarkable about SIARAD is the fullness of the voice. Caroline Reid's new collection is a roar of reassurance; of self-discovery and self-empowerment." – Dylan Dartnell, Underground Writers
"... a great introduction to poetry and flash fiction for the uninitiated. Reid's writing is satisfyingly complex without being obscure, and relatable without being simplistic ... if you hated poetry at school and haven't read it since, this might just be the book to reignite your interest. " – Tracey Korsten, Glam Adelaide
"Psychedelic. Startling. Alive." – Donna Ward, She I Dare Not Name: A Spinster's Meditations on Life
"This book is a piece of art in the way that Caroline Reid is an artist. It is truly brilliant work." – Rachael Mead, The Application of Pressure, The Flaw in the Pattern
"I was re-reading SIARAD again today. It's so good. I just love the different tempos and rhythms." – Tracy Crisp, An Evening with The Vegetarian Librarian, Surrogate
"SIARAD is the most enjoyable collection I've read this year. Caroline's voice is authentic, it leaps from the page. There were moments I gasped out loud as the writing hits you right in the gut ... Absolutely recommended whether you think you like poetry or not." – Sarah Temporal, poet & performer
