Magnificent...a devilishly fun ride
I was honestly surprised to find so many funny one-liners... Erin Somers is a clear-eyed and clever young talent who has mastered the special art of dissection with affection
Taut and incisive
Our whole culture desperately needs Stay Up with Hugo Best. A book so relevant, and yet so incredibly funny
On the surface, Somers' debut is light and breezy, but the narrative is deft, controlled, and deadly smart... An outstanding comedic debut
Incisive, funny, and tinged with melancholy, the timely novel follows two lost but clever souls desperate for connection
This is a winning debut
A timely and engaging read
Hilarious and poignant, this is a timely exploration of sexual politics
A must read for the #MeToo age
Stay Up With Hugo Best is the best kind of novel: funny, easy to read, and deceptively weighty
It's cruel, sharp and totally irresistible
