How to Fall Out of Love Madly

Three women confront the compromises they’ve made to appease the men they love in this razor-sharp, emotionally resonant novel from an author who “makes a particular female experience vivid, centered, seen” (Elle)

“In an even-more-impressive continuation of the work she began with her debut, The Girl Who Never Read Noam Chomsky (2018), Casale has again taken the detritus of women’s inner lives...and made something funny, warm, and compelling; something sisterly in the finest sense of the word"

—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

“I love this book with all my heart! Jana Casale is a master storyteller—observant, witty, sharp, and funny....This book is an honest and compelling look at female friendship, romantic relationships, and infatuation, and I couldn’t put it down.”

—Jennifer Close, New York Times bestselling author of Girls in White Dresses and Marrying the Ketchups

“I am a Jana Casale superfan....How to Fall Out of Love Madly astounds with its insights about love and the search for meaning and self-acceptance. Everyone who loves Sally Rooney should be reading Jana Casale!”

—Julie Buntin, author of Marlena

“With wit, brains, and empathy, Jana Casale throws open the curtain on the inner lives of three young women and illuminates their pain and beauty."
