"DEFINITELY MAYBE NOT by Stephen Fife is thoughtful and compulsively readable, inventive and fast-paced, with well-timed, darkly comic moments... Holly's story is explored with candor and nuance, as her moods shift wildly on a daily basis... A haunting and keenly observed meditation on relationships, parenthood, and the vagaries of celebrity and fame.” – Starred Review, Kirkus Reviews
