Critical Praise
The Big Love..."top-shelf chick lit" that "transcends its genre with 3-D characters and empathy."
——New York Magazine
"Sarah Dunn's keen observations of the unpredictability of life are delightful. This is a wonderfully funny debut novel."
——Olivia Goldsmith, author of The First Wives Club
""A fresh, funny, and sometimes moving tale of love and life at mid-thirty among young professionals in urban Philadelphia, with a narrator who is as intelligent and ingratiating as Jane Eyre.""
——A. R. Gurney, author of Love Letters
"The ground is littered with failed attempts at I-lost-my-boyfriend attempts at comic fiction. But Ms Dunn's book is brighter and funnier than most."
——New York Times
"Sweetly neurotic and utterly believable, Alison charms with her emotional clumsiness and blushing sexual honesty."
——Washington Post
"Hilarious beach read that's part Woody Allen neurotic, part 'Sex and the City'-sex obsessed." "Dunn's witty, eerily realistic peek inside Hopkins' head will cause any woman --- or man --- who's been subjected to the dating scene to laugh knowingly."
——Philadelphia Daily News
"The Big Love is a perfect sugary confection, with a surprising center of wistful wisdom...It's like a highlights real from Sex and the City. It's that funny."
——TIME Magazine
"Dunn elevates the novel from the predictable, with insightful exploration of a woman examining her faith...Dunn's superb writing style gives the book a cozy, conversational feel that serves the story well."
——Miami Herald
"Written with charm and warmth, this entertaining first novel by a TV writer will attract fans of Helen Fielding, Jane Green or Jennifer Weiner. Recommended for any library with young and hip romantic fiction readers."
——Library Journal
"The writing is fresh, the characters are just quirky enough without ever verging on cloying, and the ending is hardly the happily-ever-after, misty-eyed Cinderella fable we've come to expect from those disposable Bridget Jones knockoffs...The Big Love is for keeps."
