Praise for Somebody to Love

Included in Best Fiction, 2012, Kirkus Reviews

Kristan Higgins specializes in the kind of prose that makes you laugh out loud…hilarious on the surface, but with a bittersweet subtext: Somebody to Love is about falling in love, but also about betrayal and second chances. Nobody's perfect in this novel, but they are all…lovable in one way or another. And love, generously given, turns out to be remarkably redemptive. —National Public Radio

Strong storytelling and a refreshing, sarcastic edge...unfolds with genuine emotion. Thoroughly entertaining.
