5.0

This is one of my favorite books this year! The only problem was that I wanted to savor it slowly, but there is a long list of people waiting for it at the library and I couldn't renew it. This may be one of the rare books that I re-read in the future though. I related a lot to Nina. She's an only child (at least at first), loves books and cats, needs time alone, has social anxiety and obsesses a lot about what she just said. This book is so funny! I found myself laughing out loud quite a few times, which I don't do when I'm reading unless it's really funny. I loved Nina's new romance and also seeing how she got to meet and interact with the family she never knew until now. Great book and I look forward to reading more by Abbi Waxman!
