RaveChicago Review of BooksAt times, the romance feels a bit fast ... Henry...gives plenty of room for Alice to grow ... Complicated and emotional; sweet, sexy, and ultimately what you expect from the queen of contemporary romance: full of love.

RaveChicago Review of BooksA romp, plain and simple ... The oral interview format reads like a filmed documentary, with expertly timed interviewee contradictions and caveats infusing humor at every turn of the page ... Wild and incredibly entertaining, Lollapalooza provides a vivid recount of the genesis of one of music’s most prolific festivals. Moreover, Bienstock and Beaujour have created an instant classic for the nostalgic and contemporary alike.

Sloane Crosley
RaveChicago Review of BooksCrosley expertly weaves her humor into the narrative, never shying away from finding the lighthearted in the macabre. Her storytelling abilities are mesmerizing as she balances themes of angst, love, and heartbreak, all whilst maintaining an introspective, intimate, and frank voice. While it’s true that Grief Is for People by Sloane Crosley is a book about grief, it is also a book about ultimate perseverance.
