– Jennifer Weiner,
#1 New York Times bestselling author

"Simultaneously both light and satisfying, Sarah Pekkanen’s debut, The Opposite of Me, hits the delicious sweet spot in the portrait of a woman who needs to lose everything to find herself."

– Allison Winn Scotch,
New York Times bestselling author of "Time of My Life"

"Pekkanen's debut novel is heartfelt and richly drawn. With a delicate touch, she had me believing and sharing every laugh and every tear - it was a completely satisfying read. I look forward to more from this talented writer."

– Beth Harbison,

"Hope in a Jar"

"With warmth and charm, Sarah Pekkanen brings us an endearing portrait of a young woman struggling to define herself in the looming shadow of a dazzling twin. Move over Anna Maxted and Sophie Kinsella: With this energetic debut, America now has its own bright, comic voice."
