Seriously LOVED this read. So funny. So well written. Incredibly well developed characters with so many beautiful nuances. Amy Poeppel is one of the most vivid storytellers I’ve ever read — I think this book would make the most hilarious and wholesome movie!!

This was an easy, fun read, but i felt like it just became too unrealistic for me after about half way through the book.

What a funny, adorable little gem! I'm so surprised I didn't hear any publicity for this book, I just bought it on a whim when it had a "kindle daily deal" price. With a large cast of unique characters–including a boisterous, somewhat unconventional, family–there was never a dull moment with the shifting POVs that built each character's backstory, and seeing how all the characters were interconnected.
I'm definitely recommending this at-time hilarious, light read to anyone who will listen!

This was such a fun read! I’m a whore for anything NYC-related, but then you throw in multi-dimensional women that start as enemies but then eventually support each other? It’s like this was written for me

I kept hoping this book would get better and start making sense, but sadly it didn’t work out for me
