Lover Girl by Nicole Sellew
Lover Girl is a lesson in the schooled indifference and the complicated dynamics of thesuper-privileged and the meaning of real love as a twenty-first century girl."I read Lover Girl cover to cover, hypnotized, as though 'puffing cross-eyed on a Juul' Nicole Sellew’s dirtbag Hamptons novella brims with startling wisdom like, 'Something tells me that they do forgive me but also that I’m not done being punished.' This one hits like an icy skinny dip in your situationship’s pool." —Ruth Madievsky, author of All-Night Pharmacy
“Moody and atmospheric, Lover Girl captures the malaise of twenty-something girlhood in all its messy splendor." —Daisy Alpert Florin, author of My Last Innocent Year
"Lover Girl is a seductive fever dream about a young woman in a privileged world who has everything except for the knowledge of who she is. Are her choices the wisest? No. But that’s what makes them relatable to anyone who’s experienced the messiness of the human heart. Observing New York and the Hamptons through Sellew’s shimmering, witty prose feels like hanging out with a contemporary Eve Babitz. This is a sharp, lovely, aching debut." —Katie Crouch, New York Times best selling author of Girls in Trucks and Abroad
"I so admired this stylish and enticingly charismatic study of late girlhood ebbing into something else. Sellew captures it perfectly: her heroine is both listless and exhilarated, wry and horny and alive. Lover Girl is a perfect war of warmth and coolness, feeling and indifference, and the dance—between second-guessing and impulsive abandonment—that keeps the world turning." —Daisy Lafarge, author of Life Without Air and Paul, winner of the Betty Trask Award
