The Waitress Kindle Edition

Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

Three years out of university, Katie has been waiting tables trying to figure out what to do with her life. When it turns out that waitressing (well, being a restaurateur) may be it after all, her mom is none too thrilled. On top of family pressure to sort out her professional life, Katie begins to wonder if she isn't romantically challenged, especially after she sneaks out of a restaurant mid-date while her companion, who she really liked, is in the bathroom. Soon after, said date buys the cafe where Katie works, leaving her to wonder how things could get any worse. Of course, things get better, not worse, as Katie and friends Jon and Sukie eventually find the calm that has eluded them. Nathan has an ear for witty dialogue and aptly describes the confusing postcollege years. Entertaining chick lit with a dollop of career counseling. Beth Leistensnider
