late bloomer's revolution

"Late Bloomer's Revolution is a wry look at love and life. Amy's storytelling is irresistible throughout her foibles and her bittersweet triumph."

--Jeanette Walls, author of The Glass Castle

"Amy's honest, hilarious story of her transformation without liposuction, botox, or any kind of surgery had me in stitches. A totally relatable story that had me laughing and nodding in agreement with her universal observations about becoming a woman. This is better than chick lit, because this chick's grown up."

--Marissa Marchetto, author of Cancer Vixen.

"Refreshing is too tame a word. In this world of contemporary literature, with its embarrassment of pink books featuring disembodied high heels on the cover (if only there were a name for this genre) The Late Bloomer's Revolution is a genuinely subversive work. It's also delightful. Amy Cohen is as funny and observant a writer as one could wish for, but it is her book's measured and elegant delineation of the very real difference between solitude and loneliness that will bring you up short."

--David Rakoff, author of Don't Get Too Comfortable and Fraud.

"Who wouldn't fall in love with Amy Cohen? Her The Late Bloomer's Revolution is the new single woman's bible . . . She reminds you of what it means to love. I was riveted to her tender feelings for her parents, her disastrous dates (How could men not adore her? I am with her father on that one!), her rashes, her honesty. She provides the new happy ending -- which is better than being married, at any price."

--Laura Shaine Cunningham, author of Sleeping Arrangements and Beautiful Bodies.

"This is the last blurb I am ever going to write. I meant the last one to be the last one, but I couldn't resist this memoir, and I can't imagine anyone -- man, woman, dead or alive -- who could. The Late Bloomer's Revolution is full to bursting with heart, charm and comic brilliance."

--Melissa Bank, author of The Girls' Guide to Hunting and Fishing.

"In equal parts moving and hilarious, The Late Bloomer's Revolution is an amazing book by an amazing writer."

--Andy Borowitz

"Hilarious, heartbreaking, ultimately victorious . . . and did I say hilarious? Amy Cohen is beyond funny. She's a smart, charming, loveable scream."

--Cathi Hanauer, editor of Bitch in the House
