From the bestselling author of I Hope This Finds You Well comes a sharply funny, surprisingly tender novel about a woman stuck in place, her nosy neighbors, and the journey to find where she belongs-with all the heart of a grown-up The Breakfast Club.
Mona thought her living situation was bad… but the real mess is just beginning.
One day is all it takes for Mona’s life to implode. After years of climbing at her marketing firm, she was supposed to be getting promoted and finally moving out of her crumbling apartment building. Instead, she’s jobless, aimless, and still stuck in a space barely big enough for a yoga mat.
Then her eccentric landlady takes a tumble and asks Mona to step in as the building’s reluctant super. The deal is simple: help prep the place for sale, and she can secure the upgrade she’s been chasing. But that’s easier said than done when the neighbors treat “boundaries” as optional. There’s the shouting couple, the mysterious shut-in, a possible panty thief in the laundry room-and Sami, the relentlessly cheerful diner owner who keeps showing up with coffee and unsolicited ideas about community. As Mona gets pulled deeper into the building’s chaos-and closer to the people inside it-she’s forced to confront what, and who, she’s really been trying to outrun. Sometimes, the place you’re desperate to leave is the one that finally shows you who you are.
Wise, heartfelt, and laugh-out-loud funny, Natalie Sue’s sophomore novel is a story about burning out, starting over, and finding your people in the most unexpected places-perfect for fans of The Wedding People and Anxious People.
Nothing in Mona’s life is going right, especially after her landlady falls during a fire alarm.
Author Natalie Sue creates a side-splitting satirical look at hitting rock bottom in You’ll Love It Here. When the landlady asks Mona to step in to help get the building ready to sell, it seems like a good idea.
There’s the small matter of why the fire alarm went off, plus the fact that Mona purposely avoids everyone in her building. With her new role, she gets thrown into the middle of the many diverse personalities who call the building home.
Amid the humor is a serious thread about what makes a community—and it isn’t anything like what Mona imagined. Bonding through shared experiences gives her connections outside of her precious fish.
You’ll Love It Here features a main character full of sass getting an unexpected fresh start.
