Reviews for How Perfect Is That

“A perfect, curl-up-with-a-margarita splash of summer fun. Ms. Bird’s wickedly good grasp of social satire couldn’t be finer.” —The Dallas Morning News

“A delightful tale–part social satire, part comedy, part drama . . . Bird paces her story with rollicking hilarity and scathing insight.” —Candace Horgan, Elle’s Readers’ Prize 2008

“Bird details her pilgrim’s progress with an acute eye and ear–and a scorching sense of humor.” —The Austin Chronicle

“Sparks and laughs fly.” —The New York Post, “Required Reading”

“A fast-paced, fun story by a smart, sensitive woman . . . a perfect summer read.” —Palm Beach Post

“A laugh-out-loud addition to Bird’s long line of estrogen-fueled dramedies.” —Publishers Weekly

“Pure wicked fun . . . delivers big laughs.” —Kirkus Reviews

“Smart, sardonic satire and irresistibly irreverent irony.” —Booklist

“How Perfect Is That? Pretty damned perfect. Sarah Bird’s scathingly funny look at red state high society delivers a novel that's equal parts Edith Wharton and Nick Hornby. Hilarious.”–Will Clarke, author of Lord Vishnu's  Love Handles and The Worthy                                                                                              

“Friends, you've got a treat in store.  A laugh-out-loud riches-to-rags tale, a novel of manners that's perfect for the 'coming to our senses' post-Bush age.  How Perfect is That is a fried Twinkie of a book–crunchily witty, creamy-hearted and shockingly delicious.” –Janet Fitch, author of Paint it Black and White Oleander

“Anyone who picks up Sarah Bird’s How Perfect Is That should probably be wearing a flak jacket.   This is hard-edge, scary-funny social comedy and not for sissies.  So forget about Scott McClellan:  this is “What Really Happened”-out there where it hurts to laugh but you laugh anyway.   Then pray.”  -Dave Hickey, Air Guitar
