“Pamela Paul’s My Life with Bob is absolutely essential for those of us to whom books are more or less everything. This is a book I was born to read!”
—Robert Gottlieb

“[Pamela Paul] is reflective, open and at times achingly funny. My Life with Bob is the book that she was put on this Earth to write.”
—The Economist

“Paul is inspired to question why we read, how we read, what we read, and how reading helps us create our own narratives. Readers will be drawn to this witty and authentic tribute to the extraordinary power of books.”
—Publisher’s Weekly, starred review
