Praise for Penelope in Retrograde
“Rounded out by a quirky cast…the book will leave readers with a
real sense of the family dynamics at play here. Abrams' writing
shows a lot of promise.” —Booklist (starred review)
“An ex-husband, a fake boyfriend, and a snarky, weed-growing
grandma are just a few of the guests at the Banks’s family
Thanksgiving that make Brooke Abrams’s debut unputdownable.
Penelope in Retrograde will make you laugh a lot, cry a little, and
want to call your dysfunctional family to tell them you’ll be home
for the next holiday. Spice Girl’s Honor.” —Ali Brady, author of
The Beach Trap
“Penelope in Retrograde sucked me in from the very first page!
Abrams’s voice is a standout—she had me laughing on one page and
tearing up on the next. With sparkling wit and characters I want to
be best friends with, Abrams has crafted a story that cuts right to
the heart of what it means to be a family, and she does it
beautifully. This book is perfect for anyone who has ever struggled
to find their place. Abrams has penned a brilliant debut, and I
can’t wait to see what she does next!” —Falon Ballard, author of
Just My Type
“Brooke Abrams’s Penelope in Retrograde is the ultimate feel-good
novel. It’s utterly charming, laugh-out-loud funny, and
interspersed with genuine, heartfelt moments. Abrams’s dialogue
sparkles, and her characters come to life in all the best, most
relatable ways. I loved it.” —Kathleen West, author of Home or Away
