Tiny UK Jaunt Ahead!
Plus very nice words from Lena Dunham.
Can you take over a whole country in 24 hours? Let’s find out!
That’s right, I’m doing three events in pretty much 24 hours! Because I am squeezing this in between my children’s last day of school and our family vacation! You can come and hang with me at Sevenoaks in Kent, at BookBar, or you can order a signed copy from Mr. B’s Emporium in Bath, FOR WHICH I GET TO GO TO BATH. I AM SO EXCITED TO GO TO BATH.
Speaking of bath, I just got a very nice email from Lena Dunham and she has given me permission to share this, one of the best things someone has ever said about my writing:
Nobody mixes modern reality with old school comedy of manners vibes like Emma Straub, part Jane Austen and part Vh1. So funny and wise and perfectly done.
—Lena Dunham
Aaaahhhhhhhhhhh. So send me all your Jane Austen recs in Bath and I will see how many I can squeeze into an hour or two. I can’t wait.
Cheerio!


Persephone Books, OBVIOUSLY!!
"part Jane Austen and part Vh1" is the best blurb I've EVER HEARD. (and so TRUE!)
