Check Out What People Are Saying About SCOT ON THE ROCKS!

“[A] rollicking debut…. A breezy romantic comedy with plenty of laughs.”
- Booklist

2007 Winner, Most Humorous Novel
- Chick Lit Club.com

“[a] laugh-out-loud debut novel”
- Kristin Harmel, author of How to Sleep With a Movie Star and The Blonde Theory

“Brenda Janowitz’s debut novel is dynamite. The entire cast of characters is genuine and uncontrived. Her heroine is sassy, smart and fun, but also a bit naive. These are traits very identifiable to today’s modern woman. Full of witty humor, you will crack up laughing at Brooke’s antics. As enjoyable as the humor is, it is also very endearing and romantic. A fun and delightful tale to the very end, Scot on the Rocks is a great summer read.”
- Coffee Time Romance

“SCOT ON THE ROCKS is a hilarious and entertaining novel.”
- Fresh Fiction

“Janowitz, a Manhattan attorney who teaches creative writing at Mediabistro, proves in her first novel that "chick lit" is more than just throwing together a bunch of bad date and wedding horror stories."
- Cornell Magazine

“This is a perfect book for the beach or a plane ride, or, really, any time you want a fun and funny escape. I will never look at a man in a kilt the same way again.
- Jennifer Oko, author of Gloss

"Scot on the Rocks is a quick and entertaining read. The main character's theatrical, high-energy personality comes through loud and clear, but it is Janowitz's secondary characters that develop and grow smoothly, rounding out the plot. Readers will enjoy the scheming, shopping and well-used irony that make up this New York tale.”
- Romantic Times Magazine

“I absolutely loved the sense of humor and sense of surprise in this novel. There were several moments where I laughed out loud - especially with the quirky point of view of the main character. Even though she'd often dig herself into her own problems, I found myself rooting for her to pull through. I highly recommend Scot on the Rocks.”
- Jill Smolinski, author of Next Thing on My List and Flip Flopped

“Fantastic… amazing voice… I enjoyed every page.”
- Jamie Brenner, Girl Meets Book.com
