About the Book

'Much Ado About Nada is the contemporary take on Persuasion that I've been waiting for. Jalaluddin expertly balances explorations of family, faith, and love in a smart and authentic way. I am such a fan' EMILY HENRY Once they were sweethearts Now they're strangers Worse than strangers - practically enemies But will a chance encounter offer Nada and Baz a second chance at love? Nada Syed is stuck. At twenty-nine, she's living with her parents and mourning the failure of her start-up baby, which failed because of a double-crossing business partner. Nada's best friend Haleema is determined to pry her from her shell - and what better place than at the giant annual Muslim conference? And did Haleema mention that Baz will be there? What Haleema doesn't know is that Nada and Baz have a secret history. And in their chance encounter at the conference, that history comes hurtling at Nada, bringing a moment of reckoning. Will Nada find a way to let go of the past but hold onto her dreams? 'Warm, witty and utterly charming. I'll read anything Uzma Jalaluddin writes' KATE QUINN 'Perfection! Uzma Jalaluddin is one of the best writers in romance today, and this gorgeous book proves it' SARAH MACLEAN

Review :
Much Ado About Nada is the contemporary take on Persuasion that I've been waiting for. I've been a huge fan of Uzma Jalaluddin's since her debut novel, but this one has become my favorite. Nada is feisty, complicated, and wholly relatable, and watching her love story with Baz unfold gave me butterflies at times and squeezed my heart tight at others. As ever, Jalaluddin expertly balances explorations of family, faith, and love in a smart and authentic way. I am such a fan. 'When the reveal came I actually gasped aloud. It is, in a word: brilliant. (...) Jalaluddin translates Austen's pervasive social restrictions beautifully to the insular, somewhat conservative dating world of first and second generation Muslim immigrants, where reputations can be shattered in an afternoon and matchmaking is seen as a competitive sport.' I'll read anything Uzma Jalaluddin writes. Her latest embroils a pair of stubborn ex-lovers in a Jane Austen mess a la Persuasion: frustrated tech engineer Nada is tired of her job, her mother's matchmaking, and living at home with her parents; the last thing she needs is a run-in with Baz at the local Muslim conference in Toronto. Nada and Baz's past won't stop tripping them up-is it possible they still have a future? Much Ado about Nada is warm, witty, and utterly charming. Perfection! At once achingly romantic, wonderfully funny, and with a cast of characters that makes you want to move to Toronto immediately, Much Ado about Nada is a book you'll wish you could read again for the first time. Uzma Jalaluddin is one of the best writers in romance today-and this gorgeous book proves it. Uzma Jalaluddin has a remarkable gift for breathing new life into classic romantic plots. In Nada and Baz, Jalaluddin has created a pair of star-crossed lovers with deep history, crackling chemistry, and a secret that could change everything...if only they could figure out how to forgive themselves and each other. A genuine delight. Tender, poignant and fiercely original, this is Uzma Jalaluddin's best book yet! Its warm, witty portrayal of an unforgettable group of characters feels like a family reunion. You will fall in love with Nada, a heroine in her own class. If a slow-burn romance can break your heart while lifting you up to the clouds, Uzma Jalaluddin's Much Ado About Nada is that book. A novel by one of my favourite authors set in one of my favourite cities? Yes, please! And yet somehow, Uzma Jalaluddin has still managed to raise the bar. This is a love story that is both addictively tart and marvellously sweet told by a writer who has mastered the art of blending romance with laughter. Nada, Baz and the quirky cast of characters who make up their world are utterly charming. I didn't want it to end, and will have a hard time waiting patiently for another novel by this outstanding talent. Uzma Jalaluddin's sizzling new romance is packed with everything from dark secrets, to cyber theft, to seductive Muslim boy bands. This rom com's intrigue and thrilling plot will keep you turning page after page until the satisfying and unexpected end. This is the hottest hijabi Muslim romance you will ever read. Are Islamic matchmaking conventions worth it? Read and find out. A lively, romantic story This enemies-to-lovers romance is fun, family-driven and heartfelt, like You've Got Mail if it revolved around rival restaurants in Toronto. Absolutely irresistible. I read the whole book in one sitting and cannot wait for more from Uzma Jalaluddin! Cute, emotional, and ultimately joyful. A romance with a warm heart, one wrapped in the bonds of family and friendship, this book left me with a delighted smile on my face.
