Reception


Kirkus Reviews noted the book's focus on a coming out story from "the perspective of a young person who does not initially know how to identify his discomfort." They also commented on Lukoff's push against gender stereotypes, and called the book "[h]aunting and healing." Publishers Weekly praised the author's "smart and thought-provoking use of the ghost story framework" to talk about the main character's experience as a transgender boy. They concluded by saying "Lukoff provides a tender rumination on grief, love, and identity."
Taylor Worley, who reviewed the book for the School Library Journal, called Lukoff's book "a deeply empathetic exploration of grief and gender identity," and noted that both the ghost story and the overall themes on gender and identity are well written.
Too Bright to See was a Newbery Honor Book and a finalist for the National Book Award in the "Young people's literature" category. The book was the recipient of the Stonewall Book Award in the "Children's and Young Adult" category, alongside Malinda Lo's Last Night at the Telegraph Club.
