Reception

Booklist's Michael Cart provided a positive review, stating, "Plett writes extremely well, creating a mood and tone that match Wendy’s dark emotions and uncertainties. This character-driven novel is a welcome addition to the slender body of transgender fiction."[3]

The Globe and Mail named Little Fish one of the best 100 books of the year.[4]
