Eligible is the book of the summer!

201604-Eligible

We could not be more excited about the release of Curtis Sittenfeld’s next novel, Eligible, and it seems we’re not the only ones.

Here are a small selection of the fantastically good quotes we’ve had in lately…

‘If there exists a more perfect pairing than Curtis Sittenfeld and Jane Austen, we dare you to find it’ Elle

‘Sheer joy… Giddy and glam and a hearty update of Pride and Prejudice’ JESSIE BURTON, author of The Miniaturist

‘Dazzling’ Woman and Home

‘Eligible is all broad strokes, but it’s also snort-inducingly funny’ The Daily Mail

‘a clever, funny and terrifically entertaining retelling of Pride and Prejudice’ India Knight
