Some terrific early reviews for Nick Hornby’s Juliet, Naked:
“Nick Hornby’s warmhearted Juliet, Naked returns him to the subject that animated his 1995 classic, High Fidelity: rock music and the obsessiveness of its more enthusiastic fans.” –Vogue
“Music geeks everywhere can finally quit jonesin’: Nick Hornby is back with Juliet, Naked. It’s the winning story of a musical genius in decline, an obsessive fan, and a woman who ends up loving—and sleeping with—them both.” –GQ

A starred review and “Pick of the Week” for Nick Hornby’s Juliet, Naked in Publishers Weekly:
“Hornby returns to his roots—music, manic fandom, messy romance—in his funny and touching latest…a must-read for Hornby’s fans.”

Juliet, Naked is a powerfully engrossing, humblingly humorous novel about music, love, loneliness, and the struggle to live up to one’s promise.
Riverhead Books will publish Juliet, Naked in hardcover on September 29th.

More than 20,000 school, public, and academic librarians attended the American Library Association convention in Washington, D.C., earlier this week. Nick Hornby was in attendance to announce the publication of his first Young Adult title, Slam (G. P. Putnam’s Sons, October 16). On this event-filled day, more than 200 people attended his reading, 500 people attended his author panel program, and another 300 librarians eagerly and patiently waited in line for an autographed galley of Slam.
