The Bookish Life of Nina Hill
by Abbi Waxman
Overall I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The character Nina is strongly drawn, as is her world full of book lovers and tricia nerds. Some parts are riotously funny, including some of the scenes of book club and trivia team snark. The romance is not too overdone, and the subplot about finding her long lost family is not too heavy-handed. Overall a very enjoyable read that feels intelligent but also lighthearted.
spoilers
The only reason not to give it 5 stars is that the ending us just a little too neat with sage advice given from behind the grave. Like after creating this strong set of characters, the author needed a miraculous resolution to all of the conflict.
