After You

Praise

“I sat down to start Julie Buxbaum’s glorious second novel, After You, and could not get up until I was finished.  After You is a surprising, funny, and deeply moving novel about how we learn to take care of the people who matter most to us—and, if we are lucky, learn to care for ourselves in the process.  With Buxbaum’s signature wit and warmth, After You is the perfect companion to The Opposite of Love.  Read it.  Just make sure you have nowhere to be that day…”—Laura Dave, author of The Divorce Party

“Pitch-perfect from the very first page, After You is a tender, gripping story of how far we sometimes need to wander in order to find our way back home. A must-read for anyone who has ever wondered how to jump start her life, and really, isn’t that all of us?” — Allison Winn Scotch, author of Time of My Life

“Buxbaum writes with honesty and grace about the things we know about our friends and the things we wish we didn’t.   After You highlights—beautifully and compellingly—the truth that sometimes we have to
lose the people closest to us to find ourselves."—Jodi Picoult, author of Handle with Care and My Sister’s Keeper
