Will You Won't You Want Me?

A Novel

By: Nora Zelevansky

Narrated by: Amy Landon

Marjorie Plum never meant to peak in high school. She was Queen Bee. Now, 10 years later, she's lost her sparkle. At her bleakest moment, she's surprised by renewed interest from a questionable childhood crush, and the bickering with her cranky boss - at a potentially game-changing new job - grows increasingly to resemble flirtatious banter. Suddenly, she's faced with a choice between the life she always dreamed of and one she never thought to imagine.

With the help of a precocious 11-year-old tutee, who unknowingly becomes the Ghost of Marjorie Past, and a musician roommate who looks like a pixie and talks like the Dalai Lama, Marjorie struggles with the ultimate question: Who does she want to be?

Nora Zelevansky's Will You Won't You Want Me? is a funny, often surprising novel about growing up when you are already supposed to be grown.

Enjoyable story with great character growth

Really enjoyed the storytelling! I loved the little glimpses into side characters experiences, thoughts, and motivations in addition to following the MC around. It really added to the layers of the story. My favorite thing about the character growth in the story is that the main character would make (occasionally self-sabotaging) mistakes without that frustration that has you yelling at the book thinking, “how could anyone be this dumb.” Everything seemed realistic and genuine. I was really rooting for her to get it together
