—First for Women on Love Lettering by Kate Clayborn
“I flew through this creative and original book. I was completely absorbed by the world Kate Clayborn creates — the characters felt so real and their joys and sorrows and struggles and triumphs felt so relatable that I forgot I was reading fiction. I can’t wait for the whole world to fall in love with Love Lettering!”
—Jasmine Guillory, New York Times Bestselling Author of The Proposal
“On the surface, Love Lettering is the story of a letterer falling in love, but in actuality, it’s a novel of lush complexity, one bursting with humor, a tender melancholy, and meditations on love, friendship, and life any reader can find solace and inspiration in. It’s lyrical and engrossing, a novel that possesses all the colors, idiosyncrasies, and range of the alphabet. Like the pages Meg designs, Love Lettering is a novel bursting with hidden messages essential to discover – so long as we open our hearts to analyze the codes.”
—A+, Entertainment Weekly
“This is the first Kate Clayborn I’ve read. It won’t be the last—this book is utterly captivating, with a voice that leaps forward and then back on itself, like a series of curling loops inked a blank page. Dizzying, in the way of good champagne.”
—Olivia Waite, Seattle Review of Books
“Fresh, funny, clever, and deeply satisfying.”
