Praise for A CLOSET FEMINIST
A Closet Feminist (Unsolicited Press, 2/7/22) is an old fashioned new romance set in pre-Covid New York, Philadelphia and L.A., as a young woman finds herself. From the opening pages, you are entertained and wondering about the twists and turns of Bella's fate.
—Susan Weinstein, Not Another Book Review
Sarett’s penetrating observation couples with her sparkling prose to bring new life and vigour to the popular theme of reinvention of the self. Warm, funny and a wonderful read from both the entertainment and the literary point of view, A Closet Feminist crackles with life on every rapidly-turning page.
—Tabitha Ormiston-Smith, author of Barefoot Tango
I'm in love with Bella. She's satrical. She's self-deprecating. She's in love and she's in trouble. And somehow, despite her sense of being moderately ordinary except for her taste in vintage dresses, a trio of gorgeous, creative and successful men share my reaction to Bella, the heroine of Carla Sarett's brilliantly funny and romantic novel "The Closet Feminist." They're all in love with Bella.
—Dan Essman, author An Apostle at the Kit Kat
