About this ebook

NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE STARRING ETHAN HAWKE AND ROSE BYRNE

From the beloved New York Times bestselling author, a quintessential Nick Hornby tale of music, superfandom, and the truths and lies we tell ourselves about life and love.

Annie finds herself caught in the web of a relationship with Duncan, who adores Tucker Crowe, a reclusive singer-songwriter who vanished from the music scene years ago. As Annie's love for Duncan fades, an unexpected email correspondence with Tucker sparks a connection between two searching souls.

What happens when a washed-up musician looks for another chance? And miles away, a restless, childless woman looks for a change? Juliet, Naked is a powerfully engrossing, humblingly humorous novel about music, love, loneliness, and the struggle to live up to one’s promise.

Ratings and reviews

I enjoyed these characters. The story didn't cover a lot of time, but it didn't feel like it dragged. Fun twists and satisfying conclusion.

Even reading about the obsession with Tucker Crowe fot a bit much and unfortunately the joke was reduced the more bit was iterated.

4 out of 5 stars. I liked this book ... very funny ... however, I wish the ending was written better. =0/ Review By: From Me to You ... Video, Photography, & Book Reviews -- read more of this review on my blog --
