Synopsis
After her wildly successful story collection, THE GIRL'S GUIDE TO HUNTING AND FISHING, Melissa Banks returns with a novel about a young woman who could be an outtake from THE GIRL'S GUIDE: Sophie Applebaum, whose life is chronicled from adolescence to fortysomething. Sophie is looking for love, and also for the meaning of life, and in the process of trying to find both, she works at a variety of jobs, goes on too many blind dates, considers the pros and cons of being an observant Jew, negotiates the ever-changing dynamics of her family--and provides a great deal of entertainment for the reader.

Industry Reviews
"Another engaging, ruefully funny saga of a young woman growing up without ever quite fitting in....Very appealing...."
Kirkus (03/01/2005)

"[T]his isn't just another urban chick-lit bildungsroman....Engrossing, engaging--it's a wonderful return for Bank."
Publishers Weekly (03/14/2005)

"[I]ts strong suit [is] a companionable, offhand sense of humor leading to subtle revelations of character....THE WONDER SPOT is strikingly similar to Bank's deservedly beloved (and presumably autobiographical) 1999 best seller THE GIRLS' GUIDE TO HUNTING AND FISHING....And both books are funny in a generous-spirited way, but THE WONDER SPOT takes on weightier issues."
Atlantic Monthly
