Reviews

Dederer is not only a brilliant author, but an honest and brave one, who is not afraid to deep-dive into her own history and her own heart in order to examine what it really means to be a woman right now. I saw myself all over these pages, and a think a lot of other readers will, as well - Elizabeth Gilbert, author of EAT, PRAY, LOVE
