​
"Momentum is a memoir whose contents truly reflect the title: once you pick it up, you won't be able to put it down."
 
"Canvassing a landscape of neglect, ambiguity, fear, loss, love and compromise, Emily Brown's Momentum is a memoir ready to challenge expectations."

"She beautifully intertwines the harshness of reality with a deeply personal narrative that draws the reader in.  Her vulnerability and willingness to share her life makes this memoir deeply intimate."​​​
