"Headley's memoir is charming, hyperliterate...

and even laugh-out-loud funny. Grade: A-"

Entertainment Weekly

"Maria Headley spent a year accepting every date she was offered,and ended up with a story about what happens when you say yes to the universe. This book is painfully funny and tender, and so magical it will make you want to be young again, and in such a city."

"The only thing missing when I was done was an overflowing ashtray and a hangover the size and color of Detroit. Maria is my kind of girl."

Author of The Idiot Girl's Action Adventure Club 

"That gonzo desperation is part of what makes The Year Of Yes so lively, funny, and charming...Even when she sticks to well-trodden themes of love, lust, and loneliness, she maintains a good-natured, bitterly absurdist sense of play, laughing at herself as much as calling for sympathy...She's defiantly hilarious, and the possibilities of her magical-wonderland view of NYC seem endless."
