“A compulsive and hilarious read. In Maggie, Hartley has created one of those indelible characters of whom we must thoroughly disapprove and yet cannot help but love.”
Karen Joy Fowler, Author of THE JANE AUSTEN BOOK CLUB and WE ARE ALL COMPLETELY BESIDE OURSELVES
Praise for Maggie’s Going Nowhere
“Maggie’s Going Nowhere is a whip-smart and heartwarming novel.” – Miranda Tapsell
“Fizzing with biting wit, this clever debut is deliciously readable.” – Nicola Moriarty
“A fast-paced zinger of a debut novel…smart, funny, and more than a little rough around the edges, Maggie has TV sitcom character written all over her.” – Megan Miller, Herald Sun
“A spirited and sometimes very funny beach read.” – The Saturday Age
“This indiscreet, irresponsible anti-heroine dances to her own tune. Rose Hartley’s debut is a riotous, raunchy ride through grungy Melbourne.” – Maureen Sherlock, SA Weekend
“You can’t help but love goodtime gal Maggie Cotton, even though she’s a bit of a wreck, wouldn’t know a day’s hard work if she fell over it and has unhealthy romances.” – Leanne Edmistone, Courier Mail
“A warm-hearted and hilarious read.” – New Idea
