Insightful and entertaining... BOOKISH PEOPLE moves masterfully toward (its) crescendo, bringing disparate and often farcical motifs into harmony... As satisfying as a trip to your local indie bookstore. - The Washington Post

As much fun as Coll has with vacuum cleaners—a truly surprising amount—it's literary humor where she slays." - Kirkus Reviews

Queen of literary comedy - Newsday

Coll’s novel is a lot more serious than its cover communicates; it explores thorny issues such as the rise of neo-Nazism, career burnout, and the question of separating art from artist. Fans of novels with plenty of literary and political references or of relationship fiction will enjoy. - Library Journal

"Every reader who loves books will relish Coll's comedy of errors." - Booklist
