Best Woman

Irresistibly fresh, bright, funny, and bursting with singular voice, this is the kind of romance I’ve been waiting for

Casey McQuiston, bestselling author of Red, White and Royal Blue

A deliciously clever and relentlessly hilarious firecracker of a debut . . . smart, sexy, and endlessly entertaining

Irreverently funny and tear-jerkingly tender, Best Woman takes the wedding cake as my favorite debut of the year

JP Brammer

Part romance, part lit-fic, all wedding bells, Rose Dommu’s debut novel contains nostalgic nods to quintessential Nineties romcoms all while managing to revel in the joys of family and the messiness of a brand new life.

Rolling Stone

Full of snappy pop culture references, Dommu is an especially tender writer of our awkward little yearnings.

[The] near-universal contours of trans experience have rarely been articulated with such specificity in published fiction

them

Destined to be optioned . . . [Best Woman] feel[s] deeply cinematic without ever sacrificing laughs or hewing to the audience’s expectations. (After all, who says a leading lady can’t sow a little pre-nuptial tumult in the estimable company of hot people of all genders?)

Vogue

Devourable and quippy . . . an exploration of trans identity through a troublemaking lens. Just like the romantic comedies it takes inspiration from, it’s a romp full of painfully true moments.

Xtra

Dommu knows how to capture an audience. And she brings that in full force with her delightful . . . debut novel. . . . It’s engrossing, at times stressful—in the best possible way—and is easily one of those books that you accidentally read in one sitting because you just couldn’t put it down.
