About the Book

"At once comic, heart-breaking, and life-affirming." --Tish Cohen, author of Town House "Imagine if Bridget Jones fell into a million little pieces, flew over the cuckoo's nest, and befriended Lindsay Lohan along the way, and you are beginning to grasp the literary roller coaster ride that is Catherine McKenzie's Spin." --Leah McLaren, author of The Continuity Girl How far would you go to get what you wanted? That's the question author Catherine McKenzie addresses in Spin--a delectable debut novel that takes readers into the connected worlds of pop culture, tabloid journalism, and celebrity rehab. The story of a newbie undercover gossip reporter who follows a troubled starlet into a rehab clinic intending to dig up all the dirt she possibly can, Spin is smart, hip, utterly engaging contemporary fiction in the vein of Jennifer Weiner and Emily Giffin.

Review :
"A compelling, fast-paced read." - Globe and Mail (Toronto) "In Kate Sandford, Catherine McKenzie has created a 21st century Bridget Jones--dark and delicate, broken yet strong. SPIN is all at once comic, heart-breaking, and life-affirming." - Tish Cohen, author of Inside Out Girl and Town House "Spin is a fresh, sassy and compelling novel delivered with pitch-perfect humor. McKenzie's light touch with a serious topic will have readers cheering for Katie as she proves people can change." - Holly Kennedy, author of The Penny Tree, The Silver Compass and The Tin Box "Imagine if Bridget Jones fell into a million little pieces, flew over the cuckoo's nest, and befriended Lindsay Lohan along the way, and you are beginning to grasp the literary roller coaster ride that is Catherine McKenzie's Spin. Filled with brutal honesty and wry humour, Spin is a story for anyone who has ever woken up hungover and thought, 'Do I have a problem? Yes-I need to find a greasy breakfast.' And by that I mean everyone I know." - Leah McLaren, Globe and Mail columnist, author of The Continuity Girl "Imagine if Bridget Jones fell into a million little pieces, flew over the cuckoo's nest, and befriended Lindsay Lohan along the way...." - Leah McLaren, Globe and Mail columnist, author of The Continuity Girl "With Spin, Catherine McKenzie taps into both the ridiculous and sublime elements of the world her characters inhabit, and, more importantly, points out how those are often exactly the same. A thoroughly engaging debut." - David Sprague, music journalist, contributor to Variety, Village Voice, and Rolling Stone "McKenzie's deliciously tart sense of humor and her tough yet tender heroine are as refreshing as a perfectly mixed mimosa." - Chicago Tribune on SPIN "The characters are easily imagined and well thought out.... Making her U.S. debut, Canadian author McKenzie introduces a modern literary heroine who will remind readers of Sophie Kinsella's "Shopaholic" protagonist: flawed but compelling....compulsively readable. " - Library Journal on SPIN "[A] charming debut...With fresh, fast-paced storytelling and a personable, self-deprecating protagonist, McKenzie whirls a perfectly indulgent tale." - Publishers Weekly on SPIN "[McKenzie] is a writer to watch." - Booklist on SPIN "Catherine McKenzie, in her debut novel, ably invites the reader into the story... For readers who enjoy a light, breezy love story, this book clips along well and satisfies. Many will likely find this book enjoyable and a worthy debut effort by Catherine McKenzie." - New York Journal of Books "McKenzie's tale of girls gone wild and gone to rehab is ripped straight from the latest tabloid headlines and will keep readers intrigued to the very last page." - RT Book Reviews (top pick)
