Yes, the Kirkus review person gave My Heart Is Not Asleep a Kirkus Star, which is not a common thing, I am told. Also, it means they will publish the review in their media 10/1/24, with a buy this book recommendation. Better still, it is scheduled to be featured as an Indie Book of the Month on November 15th. Be still, my heart!
