“Hadeer Elsbai takes left-at-the-altar-on-wedding-day anxieties and ratchets the tension up until it's nearly unbearable. The characters are emotionally believable and morally complex, placing the reader in a squirmy position of not knowing who (or what) to root for, which is what the best fiction does. You Just Have to Ask Me dares ask the questions we might be afraid to answer.” —Paul Tremblay, New York Times bestselling author of Horror Movie: A Novel and Dead But Dreaming of Electric Sheep
“Grabbed me from page one and locked me in until the final punctuation mark. Nightmarish, unhinged, and expertly paced. With You Just Have to Ask Me, Elsbai instantly becomes my next favorite auto-buy author. I can’t wait to see what she comes up with next.” — Marcus Kliewer, New York Times bestselling author of We Used to Live Here
