Reviewing Once More We Saw Stars for The New York Times, Alex Witchel praised the book as "a revelation of lightness and agility. That [Greene] managed to keep his facility for language during a period where it often disappears is a miracle. He has created a narrative of grief and acceptance that is compulsively readable and never self-indulgent."^[11] Rolling Stone gave it four of five stars, noting that the story which "might be too bleak to face" instead is "an intensely moving, life-affirming story about a young couple moving through the darkest depths of grief together, making it up as they go along."^[12]
