"Abbi Waxman is both irreverent and thoughtful."--#1 New York Times bestselling author Emily Giffin

The author of Other People's Houses and The Garden of Small Beginnings delivers a quirky and charming novel chronicling the life of confirmed introvert Nina Hill as she does her best to fly under everyone's radar.

Meet Nina Hill: A young woman supremely confident in her own...shell.

The only child of a single mother, Nina has her life just as she wants it: a job in a bookstore, a kick-butt trivia team, a world-class planner and a cat named Phil. If she sometimes suspects there might be more to life than reading, she just shrugs and picks up a new book.

When the father Nina never knew existed suddenly dies, leaving behind innumerable sisters, brothers, nieces, and nephews, Nina is horrified. They all live close by They're all--or mostly all--excited to meet her She'll have to Speak. To. Strangers. It's a disaster And as if that wasn't enough, Tom, her trivia nemesis, has turned out to be cute, funny, and deeply interested in getting to know her. Doesn't he realize what a terrible idea that is?

Nina considers her options.
1. Completely change her name and appearance. (Too drastic, plus she likes her hair.)
2. Flee to a deserted island. (Hard pass, see: coffee).
3. Hide in a corner of her apartment and rock back and forth. (Already doing it.)

It's time for Nina to come out of her comfortable shell, but she isn't convinced real life could ever live up to fiction. It's going to take a brand-new family, a persistent suitor, and the combined effects of ice cream and trivia to make her turn her own fresh page.

Good option for people that carry a lot with them
Color: Silver
Very pretty purse for a dressy occasion. I always carry a lot of stuff with me and this actually can fit it. The option to be able to unfold the top to give it more room to put stuff in is fantastic! I love the 2 different strap options as well. It comes in a nice drawstring bag for storage. Very happy with this purchase.

Great for everyday or special occasions
Color: Wine Woven Suede
Mine is brown and I use it daily. Dresses up a sweat set, works as a real clutch for dinners. I'll definitely buy another color.

Cute Look, Mid-Shelf Build
Color: Black Woven Suede, Color: Black Woven Suede
This purse looks like it’s going to impress — that woven pattern gives off designer energy without the designer price. In reality, it’s more of a lightweight, occasional-use accessory than a daily driver. The suede-style material is soft and easy on the eyes, but it isn’t exactly robust. The structure feels thin, and the bag doesn’t have much internal organization. Think “carry the essentials to dinner,” not “load this up and hit a full day at the office.” The gold accent is cute, but again, decorative more than durable. For the price, it’s fine for a night out, a holiday party, or when you want something small and polished. But if you’re looking for longevity or any kind of everyday functionality, this stays firmly in the fashion-over-function category.

Worth the money
Color: Black Woven Suede
The quality of this purse is insane. It’s stitch so well and looks very high-end very much like it’s doppelgänger worth the money.
