In the follow up to her smart debut, The Ghost Network, Catie Disabato creates a vivid portrait of a young woman investigating her best friend' s disappearence while navigating codependent friendships, toxic exes, and witchy rituals.
A most anticipated book of 2021 from LitHub A most anticipated book of 2021 from The Millions This heady, sexy novel is filled with the carefree wildness of youth, with an added metaphysical bonus. Eve' s voice is enticing and compelling, and readers will be carried along with her as she learns more about herself than she ever planned. --Booklist A poignant . . . story of grief, ghosts, and friendship . . . Disabato makes [the characters] come alive on the page and in her texts. --Publishers Weekly Utterly bewitching--a dark, paranoid, mordantly funny LA noir that highlights Catie Disabato' s wonderfully vivid and skewed vision of our contemporary society. Disabato is one of my favorite young authors--a truly original voice! --Dan Chaon, author of Ill WillDisabato is a generational voice and a voice of a generation. U Up is smart, sharp, wise, and wrenching in equal measure . . . An enviable book by an enviable writer. I loved it. --Ivy Pochoda, author of These Women What a terrific, frisky novel! U Up? . . . transcends genre, and is such fun to read. Disabato' s writing is at once so smooth and sharp that you don' t immediately realize it' s cut you--and deeply. She is a remarkable talent. --Edan Lepucki, author of Woman No. 17Disabato captures LA' s nightlife (and daylife!) in all of its beauty, impropriety, and conspicuous consumption as if she were the Eve Babitz of the Instagram Age. U Up? is a delight. " --Maris Kreizman, author of Slaughterhouse 90210
