Deb News:
Deb Jess’s Driving Sideways received a fantastic endorsement this week: “Jess Riley’s writing grabbed me in the very first paragraph with a Bay City Rollers reference and never let me go. Driving Sideways is a hopeful and hilarious debut and Jess Riley may well be my new favorite author.” Jen Lancaster, author of Bitter is the New Black and Bright Lights, Big Ass (NAL Trade).
