PAGING APHRODITE

"Chick Lit at its finest!" -- reader Lisa J.



“Paging Aphrodite is fun without being trendy, shows the serious side of women without being heavy and their strengths without being overbearing. The characters are great, the setting exotic and the storyline fulfilling.”
full review

“A sharply witty, luscious cocktail of a novel. Kim Green writes like that caustic, funny best friend you wish you had; if you take only one book on your summer vacation, make it Paging Aphrodite.” -- New York Times bestselling author Eloisa James

“No matter how gray your day, this sparkly, sexy story will make the sun shine for you.” -- Sue Margolis, author of Breakfast at Stephanie’s

"Kim Green is an exceptionally talented writer who explores love, life, and friendships with wit and honesty. She creates a world you will love to lose yourself in." -- Theresa Alan, author of Spur of the Moment

"Paging Aphrodite is fabulous! It’s just pure fun. Ms. Green indulges the fantasy many of us have of running away to a beautiful faraway island to reevaluate and reinvent ourselves. Most of all, it is a well-written book with strong, likable female characters and a story I could not put down. I hope Ms. Green will consider writing a sequel and continuing the adventure. It's the next-best thing to actually running off to a Greek isle -- and I didn't even have to pack!” -- Rosemary S., Laguna Hills, CA

“A wonderful story that captures your attention right from the start. You grow to know and love these women and can't wait to see how their lives will turn out. This story is a testament to the fact that we never know where life can lead and it’s worth it to take chances. I hope to read more from Kim Green.” -- Jeannie R., Brookville, PA

“Would you like to read the private journals of four very different women? That's what you will have with Paging Aphrodite. Kim Green’s characters have all the foibles and emotions of people that I know. What's interesting is that the directions that their lives take are not exactly what you might expect.” -- Linda D., Baton Rouge, LA

“Kim Green’s novel is enchanting and fast moving, with solid characters and clever dialogue. There are plenty of surprises to keep those pages turning. The unflinching honesty and devilish wit make for a hilarious and heartwarming journey that every woman can relate to. The allure of this novel lies in all the details—they ring true to real life, making this book difficult to put down. Which way to Corfu?” -- Katherine M., Dorchester, MA

“This novel is as much about finding yourself as it is about romance. This is women's fiction at its most fun, and is a great sunny diversion for those upcoming gloomy winter nights.” -- Kim G., Tempe, AZ

“I really enjoyed this book. I found a part of myself in each of these women. I think that during the long gray winter I will reread it and dream of hot blue skies and scorching sands. Read it, laugh, cry, envy the long vacations and ageless friendships.” -- Catherine W., Crossville, TN

“This book would make the perfect vacation read. The author has a wonderful sense of atmosphere -- I could almost feel the sand beneath my feet and hear the Greek music. However, I think the strongest point of the book was the amazing characters she created. I would recommend Paging Aphrodite to anyone who is looking for a book that is hilarious, yet also touching and insightful.” -- Cynthya P., Mooresville, IN

“What a wonderful story! The four women enthralled me -- how they managed to put their problems behind them and make a new start. Kim Green has written a story that helps put life in perspective.” -- George Z., Cleveland, OH

“I think this book is well worth the read. It shows you can pick up your life and start over again and be happy.” -- Anita Y., Hampton, GA

“An absolutely delightful book filled with realistic characters. This unique story is well written and funny. It was a totally enjoyable experience getting to know each woman and following her through her trials and tribulations. I finished it too quickly.” -- Sharon B., Albuquerque, NM

“This is a very funny novel, with great characters. I couldn’t put it down once I started it. I read it in a day. I lent it to my reading buddy and she felt the same way. I heartily recommend this book.” -- Pat R., Durham, CT

"Chick lit at its finest. Paging Aphrodite is humorous, witty and highly entertaining. Kim Green's heroines are fabulous. A fun-filled read from start to finish!" -- Lisa J., Rancho Palos Verdes, CA

“Paging Aphrodite was funny, charming, witty, and a heartwarming read. I truly enjoyed this work by Kim Green, and plan to pick up more of her novels.” -- Jessica B., Lexington, KY

“Insightful and funny, with a touch of melancholia. Paging Aphrodite raises the question of making waves in your own life.” -- Margaret M., Knoxville, TN

“The book was wonderful. The characters were so true to life. A great read.” -- Kari S., Fairfield, ME
