Praise for The First Date Prophecy
“I snorted once a page on average and sometimes involuntarily. Tom Robbins for the Tinder generation. The Tamberellis employ an uncommon attention to detail and tell their story from an intimate, at times cringe worthy perspective that elevates the comedy with the kind of lived in ring of truth all good writing has.” —Matt Doherty, actor, The Mighty Ducks and So I Married an Axe Murderer
“Vulnerable without being verbose, the authors are skilled at plumbing the depths of these characters and lend an air of self-assured authenticity to the courtship proceedings. You can both read The First Date Prophecy, but if you do it together at a bar, that would be a little…on the nose.” —Michael C. Maronna, actor, The Adventures of Pete and Pete and Home Alone
“A love story as delightful and idiosyncratic as its authors.” —Mara Wilson, actress, Mrs. Doubtfire and Matilda
"A dynamic 'he said, she said' of the current dating scene that will keep you entertained to the last page." —Melissa Joan Hart
"As funny and charming as Kate and Danny are in real life, which says a lot." —Lane Moore, author of You Will Find Your People: How To Make Meaningful Friends As An Adult, and How To Be Alone
"A luminous, hilarious romance that is both equal parts magical and a heartwarming reminder that when it comes to love, we make our own fate." —Ashley Herring Blake, author of Delilah Green Doesn't Care
“The First Date Prophecy is a gorgeous, inspiring, and hilarious tale that also somehow manages to incorporate all of my favorite snacks and beverages. Perhaps more importantly, it made me believe in love and Brooklyn again. There—I said it. If Kate and Danny don’t write another book together immediately, I will be completely enraged.” —Dave Hill, comedian and author of Parking the Moose
“The First Date Prophecy is a joyous, nostalgic rom-com romp in which the authors’ love for each other dazzles through. We’re delighted we had the excellent fortune of enjoying this iconic read!” —Emily Wibberley and Austin Siegemund-Broka, authors of Do I Know You? and The Roughest Draft
"Lots of rom-com stories are heavy on the rom and light on the com. This one brings the COM! It also provided for many excellent squeals of delight as I rooted for the heroes. Unputdownable! I took it with me everywhere until I finished." —Marguerite Moreau, actress, Wet Hot American Summer and The Mighty Ducks
"Romance, comedy, tacos, psychics, life, death, and love—The First Date Prophecy has it all. A beautiful, fun, and complex love story told by a beautiful, fun, and complex couple." —Kumail Nanjiani and Emily V. Gordon, co-authors of The Big Sick
Praise for the novels of Katelyn Detweiler (Kate Tamberelli):
“Family, friendship, and love convene in The People We Choose, Katelyn Detweiler’s sensitive novel about a teenager’s revelatory summer. . . . Wise about irrevocable facts, The People We Choose is a modern novel in which love expands to encompass once-strangers and friendships that are close because of honesty.” —Foreword Reviews
“A sweet reminder that family extends beyond the bounds of blood.” —Kirkus Reviews on The People We Choose
“Perfect for readers struggling with questions of how far to go to protect those you love. Detweiler, a literary agent and author, knows both sides of publishing, and it shows, giving this novel an extra oomph of realism. Thistle is affable and easy to commiserate with, and, despite her increasingly complicated situation, her plight is lovingly and respectfully written. —Booklist on The Undoing of Thistle Tate
