The Spinster Diaries

“TV writer Gina Fattore has penned this ‘semi-autobiographical unromantic comedy‘ to shine a hilarious light on chick lit, the TV business and spinsterhood. If you need a laugh and want to support indie publishing during this time of uncertainty, this is the book for you.” — Ms. Magazine “Fattore‘s lightning-fast prose shines… A humorous and heartfelt look at the expectations women have lived with, and triumphed over, across the centuries.” — Kirkus "A satirical and heartfelt novel that touches on life in the TV business and the chick lit novels we all know and love.” — Bookstr “Paying homage to women who self-actualize through their art, The Spinster Diaries focuses on two women separated by time who live out their beliefs… Gina’s story develops in tandem with Fanny’s. Both adopt The Spinster Way, prioritizing writing over the typical feminine protocol of marriage and children. Their relationships with their sisters highlight the importance of women’s friendships, while their resilience and humor are dominant and infectious. Fanny inspires Gina to maintain hope in the face of death, even as she herself outlives everyone she loves. The ending is unexpected and delightful.” — Foreword
