Praise for The Bookish Life of Nina Hill

"Move over on the settee, Jane Austen. You've met your modern-day match in Abbi Waxman. Bitingly funny, relatable and intelligent, The Bookish Life of Nina Hill is a must for anyone who loves to read."--Kristan Higgins, New York Times bestselling author of Good Luck With That

"The author of 2017's heartfelt The Garden of Small Beginnings is back with another winner."--PopSugar

"In this love letter to book nerds, Waxman introduces the extraordinary introvert Nina Hill.... With witty dialogue and a running sarcastic inner monologue, Waxman brings Nina to vibrant life as she upends her introverted routine and becomes part of the family. Fans of Jojo Moyes will love this."--Publishers Weekly

"Waxman has created a thoroughly engaging character in this bookish, contemplative, set-in-her ways woman. Be prepared to chuckle."--Kirkus Review (starred review)

"Book nerds will feel strong kinship with the engaging, introverted Nina Hill, who works in a bookstore, plays pub trivia, and loves office supplies... Readers will be captivated by Nina's droll sense of humor."--Booklist (starred review)

"Full of pop culture references (bonus points for readers who catch the Men at Work one), and the handwritten planner entries are reminiscent of those in Bridget Jones's diary....Will appeal to chick lit fans who enjoy copious rapid-fire dialog."--Library Journal

"...charming and relatable for any introvert who would rather pass time with fictional characters than people, but will rise to the occasion with the right support."--BookTrib

"Book lovers will absolutely relate to the central character in Abbi Waxman's third novel."--O, The Oprah Magazine

"If you relate to staying in and JOMO (joy of missing out), you'll relate to Nina."--Betches

"[F]ast, light, and fun."--Modern Mrs. Darcy

Praise for Abbi Waxman

"Brilliant. Simply brilliant. The Garden of Small Beginnings is funny, poignant, and startling in its emotional intensity and in its ability to make the reader laugh and cry on the same page . . . I loved this book!"--Karen White, New York Times bestselling author of the Tradd Street Novels

"[A]summer beach read with meat. . . Waxman develops and explores the characters and their relationship in depth."--The Washington Post

"This is my favorite kind of book--hilarious, sad, joyful. Beautifully written. Fun. I dare you not to enjoy it."--Julia Claiborne Johnson, author of Be Frank With Me

"What a treat!! Abbi Waxman is one of the wittiest voices in the world today. The Garden of Small Beginnings is a beautiful book full of humor, heart, and deep insight."--Molly Shannon, actress

"Funny and poignant. Guaranteed to make you laugh and cry. May make you want to play in dirt and grow a new life of your own."--Wendy Wax, USA Today bestselling author of Best Beach Ever

"Meet your new favorite writer."--The Daily Beast

"Waxman's skill at characterization . . . lifts this novel far above being just another 'widow finds love' story. Clearly an observer, Waxman has mastered the fine art of dialogue as well. Characters ring true right down to Lilian's two daughters, who often steal the show."--Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

"Waxman takes readers from tears to laughter in this depiction of one woman's attempt to hold it all together for everyone else only to learn it's OK to put herself first."--Booklist

"Kudos to debut author Waxman for creating an endearing and realistic cast of main and supporting characters (including the children). Her narrative and dialog are drenched with spring showers of witty and irreverent humor."--Library Journal (starred review)

"The Garden of Small Beginnings is a quirky, funny, and deeply thoughtful book."--HelloGiggles

"Waxman's voice is witty, emotional, and often profound."--InStyle (UK)

"This novel is filled with characters you'll love and wish you lived next door to in real life."--Bustle

"It's impossible not to fall in love with Lilian, a young widow who is still trying to come to terms with the death of her husband four years later . . . If you are thinking to yourself, 'Forget it, I'm not reading a gardening book, ' don't worry . . . THIS IS NOT A GARDENING BOOK! It is, however, a feel-good, hate-to-put-it-down kind of book!"--Chick Lit Central
