"Patty Marx is a genius of trenchant zaniness." --Lorrie Moore, author of A Gate at the Stairs “Stylish and sarcastic. Marx moves the story forward with infectious zeal and allows readers to revel in a quirky take on sex (and death) in the city.” --Publishers Weekly "Patty Marx is an authentic wit and her book is funny and often brilliant." –Woody Allen “A funny boy-meets-girl novel in witty, quick bits that read like your best friend’s best tweets.” --O Magazine “A book that’s moving and sweet. As the summer lopes toward its end, those looking for one last beach read could do a lot worse than to read this unexpectedly lovely book - in fact, one could hardly do better.” --Boston Globe “A poignant portrait of a long-term relationship, with all the disappointments and occasional triumphs that entails. A funny, sad and original take on the mating game.” --Kirkus Reviews “Comedic high art. Readers who enjoy the sly observations of Nora Ephron and the smart silliness of Woody Allen and Steve Martin should try Starting from Happy.” --Booklist
