Katie Arnoldi's THE WENTWORTHS in Bookstores This Week

Katie Arnoldi's The Wentworths is on sale this week, and getting lots of attention - from the Los Angeles Times to rave reviews in the blogosphere, including this one: "First of all, I must say that I’m really annoyed because there’s not enough time to do what I want to do, which is to go out and buy Ms. Arnoldi’s first book (Chemical Pink) IMMEDIATELY and then spend the day reading it. I can’t do this, though – too many irons in the fire. For now I’ll just have to be satisfied with memories of Ms. Arnoldi’s terrific sophomore effort, The Wentworths. This little satire packs a big punch, and from the very beginning I was thrilled to be immersed in the privileged world of these nasty, nasty people. . . Like David Mamet says on the cover, it was “too short.” I want more! Ms. Arnoldi absolutely must write a sequel. Until then, I guess I’ll have to be satisfied with this little “prequel.” Get a move on, Katie!"
