A proposito di questo titolo

'Acutely smart' - Elizabeth Day
'Completely addictive' – Taylor Jenkins Reid
'Funny, sexy, unafraid, completely unputdownable' – India Knight

Jess first meets Josh at their Ivy League college. He is an entitled white guy in chinos, ready to inherit the world. She is almost always the only Black woman in their class. And she’s not expecting to inherit anything.

After graduation, Jess and Josh end up working at the same bank. They share lunch, they share sparring matches, they share ambitions. And suddenly they’re sleeping together . . .

Cecilia Rabess' Everything's Fine is hilarious, heartbreaking and impossible to put down.

'Spectacular' – Curtis Sittenfeld
'Addictive and extremely funny' –Jenny Colgan
'Stunning’ – Meg Mason
'Plain funny as hell' – Zakiya Dalila Harris
'Our most explosive discussion yet . . . The PERFECT book club book' – Casual Readers Book Club

Recensioni della critica

The book of the moment . . . It’s about whether it is ever possible for two people who fancy each other but profoundly disagree about everything that matters to have a happy relationship . . . It’s so good — funny, sexy, unafraid, brilliantly nuanced, completely unputdownable. (100 Best Books of the Summer 2023)
A stunning debut (Meg Mason, bestselling author of Sorrow and Bliss)
Truly brilliant . . . incredible dialogue and characters so real that I felt preoccupied with them when I wasn't reading. I couldn't have loved it more (Curtis Sittenfeld, author of Romantic Comedy)
One of the smartest books I’ve read this year and also completely addictive. I can’t say enough good things about it (Taylor Jenkins Reid, author of The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo)
Does love conquer all? Does it now? Did it ever? These are questions Cecilia Rabess asks in her nimble, discerning debut . . . The ending of Everything’s Fine is one of the best I’ve read in years
Addictive and extremely funny (Jenny Colgan, The Guardian, Five of the best romance books of 2023)
A subtle, ironic, wise state-of-the-nation novel, sharp enough to draw blood, hidden inside a moving, intimate, sincere and very real love story - or vice versa (Nick Hornby, author of High Fidelity and About a Boy)
Everything's Fine poses incisive questions about love, identity, and the countless ways these things can both bruise and bolster one another. Cecilia Rabess has crafted an extraordinarily brave debut that's painfully real—but plain funny as hell, too (Zakiya Dalila Harris, bestselling author of The Other Black Girl)
A smart, tangly romance
An assured debut that provides an honest look into the fraught terrain of a mixed-race, mixed-politics romance . . . Rabess is at her best when she is shining a light on the subtle mores that exclude Black women from conventions of desirability
Warm, funny and romantic but it’s also sharp and full of nuance
A brilliantly observed novel about what it means to lose yourself as a young woman. So funny but also incredibly true (Nina Stibbe, author of Love, Nina)
With the 2016 election looming, a volatile cultural and political landscape forces Jess and Josh to reckon with a relationship defined by their differences, and they find that the closer you are to someone the harder it is to villainize them
Fans of Such A Fun Age will enjoy this nuanced, witty read that’s about race, privilege and loving someone but not always liking them
Original, confident, hilarious (Sathnam Sanghera, author of Empireland)
A whip smart, sexy, biting love story about how what unites us does not always overcome what divides us (Kiran Millwood Hargrave, author of The Mercies)
