Publisher's Summary
Nina has her life just as she wants it: a job in a bookstore, a kick-butt trivia team, a world-class planner and a cat named Phil. When the father Nina never knew existed suddenly dies, leaving behind innumerable sisters, brothers, nieces and nephews, Nina is horrified.
They all live close by! They're excited to meet her! She'll have to Speak. To. Strangers. And as if that wasn't enough, Tom, her trivia nemesis, has turned out to be cute, funny, and deeply interested in getting to know her. It's time for Nina to come out of her comfortable shell. It's going to take a brand-new family, a persistent suitor, and the combined effects of ice cream and trivia to make her turn her own fresh page.

Bright and bubbly
A likeable and relatable protagonist in a range of quirky and amusing situations. The narrator suits her character perfectly.

Suggested book if I liked ‘where did you go Bernadette’
This book was just dreadful. I am not even sure who is it’s target audience as even millennials would be insulted by this fairy floss take on being a millennial! And it isn’t even in the same category as other quirky female best selling characters such as Bernadette or Eleanor Oliphant.

Terrible
Poorly developed 2D, shallow characters. A plot that is trying to be a rom-com and mostly failing on both counts.
The narrator had no range of voice for different characters and her expression seemed limited to monotone or over the top upwards inflection regardless of the dialogue.
Don't be fooled by the title folks - this is no The Book Ninja

Poor narration
Audible is an app that exists solely so we can pay for the pleasure of having books being read to us. So it is entirely unprofessional to offer such a poorly read book for sale.
