Review Quotes: Praise for Audrey and Emily's debut, Emma of 83rd Street
"[A] charming debut... The authors bring plenty of wit to this classic friends-to-lovers tale. Readers will fall in love with Emma Woodhouse all over again."--Publishers Weekly "Belleza and Harding have created a glamorous romp that is heartfelt, steamy, and romantic... For fans of the movie Clueless and retellings of classics."--Library Journal "A great summer beach read...From its Lilly Pulitzer-colored cover to its Blair Waldorf-type protagonist, this book should be purchased immediately because it's going to ride off shelves like a vintage Jaguar with the top down."--Bookreporter "The best romantic comedy I've ever read. A sparkling take on Emma that would make Jane Austen proud."--Lauren Layne, New York Times bestselling author of Made in Manhattan "Emma of 83rd Street is a compulsive page-turner with excellent slow-burn tension. A friends-to-lovers instant favorite!"--Sarah Hogle, author of You Deserve Each Other "Delightfully modern and compulsively readable, Emma of 83rd Street made my Clueless-loving heart sing--a knockout debut!"--Angie Hockman, author of Shipped "A delightful, modern twist on Jane Austen's Emma...The crackling tension between him [Knightley] and Emma drives the story, but as in Austen's original, the relationship also leads both characters to some critical self-examination. Bellezza and Harding balance the introspection with a healthy dose of New York glitz...as with all Austen adaptations, the joy--and there's plenty of it--is definitely in the journey."--Shelf Awareness
