Faithful (Hoffman)

Book Reviews
The sweet-natured latest novel from Hoffman ambles along pleasantly enough.... The novel, with its hopeful message and well-intentioned characters, will appeal for the relatability of Shelby’s slow coming-of-age, romantic difficulties....
Publishers Weekly


Shelby Richmond loves Chinese food, bookstores, and cocky, bad-boy types, so maybe her move from Long Island to New York City makes sense. But she's still a lost soul.... Hoffman being heartbreaking and magical.
Library Journal


[A] young Long Island woman afflicted by survivor guilt.... With Hoffman, it’s a safe bet deus ex machina or mild enchantment is going to enter the plot.... A novel full of people—flawed, scarred, scared—discovering how to punish themselves less and connect with others more.
