A proposito di questo titolo

Brought to you by Penguin.

Julia loves her family. They stood by her when she came out as a woman and have been nothing but supportive of her life in New York. So when her brother asks her to be ‘best woman’ in his wedding, how could she say no?

Now though, Julia’s facing a week in her hometown dealing with bridezilla and her cronies, her parents’ messy post-divorce relationship, and a mountain of old memories she’s done her best to avoid. She’s totally fine.

That is, until Julia learns that Kim Cameron – gorgeous, self-assured, and the object of Julia’s unrequited high school crush – is maid of honour.

Thinking no harm will come of it, Julia tells a tiny little lie to win Kim over. But the lie quickly snowballs, jeopardizing both their blossoming attraction and Julia’s relationship with her family. As Julia struggles through the wedding week and tensions begin to boil over, can the best woman fix her worst mistake?

Recensioni della critica

BEST WOMAN absolutely sparkles with all the wit, charm, and drama of the best 90’s rom-coms, and does it in pitch perfect prose

Irresistibly fresh, bright, funny, and bursting with singular voice, this is the kind of romance I’ve been waiting for

A deliciously clever and relentlessly hilarious firecracker of a debut . . . smart, sexy, and endlessly entertaining

Irreverently funny and tear-jerkingly tender, Best Woman takes the wedding cake as my favorite debut of the year

Part romance, part lit-fic, all wedding bells, Rose Dommu’s debut novel contains nostalgic nods to quintessential Nineties romcoms all while managing to revel in the joys of family and the messiness of a brand new life.

Full of snappy pop culture references, Dommu is an especially tender writer of our awkward little yearnings.

[The] near-universal contours of trans experience have rarely been articulated with such specificity in published fiction

Destined to be optioned . . . [Best Woman] feel[s] deeply cinematic without ever sacrificing laughs or hewing to the audience’s expectations. (After all, who says a leading lady can’t sow a little pre-nuptial tumult in the estimable company of hot people of all genders?)

Devourable and quippy . . . an exploration of trans identity through a troublemaking lens. Just like the romantic comedies it takes inspiration from, it’s a romp full of painfully true moments.

Dommu knows how to capture an audience. And she brings that in full force with her delightful . . . debut novel. . . . It’s engrossing, at times stressful—in the best possible way—and is easily one of those books that you accidentally read in one sitting because you just couldn’t put it down.
