I surprisingly really liked this book. It had the banter I was looking for. I am new to this author so I wasn't sure what to expect but I loved the writing style. The story kept me engaged as well.

Thank you to NetGalley and Penguin Group Putnam for the eARC in exchange for my unbiased review.

The premise of this book holds so much promise - It’s quirky and unique. How often do you find the main character visited by a long dead artist from Verona? The author’s technique of using humor to address a character dealing with a chronic illness is fresh and has great potential. Despite the innovative writing and funny moments, I was not the right reader for this book.

It felt a bit chaotic and disjointed which kept me from truly connecting with Vita. Lately my tastes have run more toward plot centered books than character based literary fiction. Perhaps it was timing, but this was a chore for me to get through.

I loved the main character, and I really related. I do feel as though there are aspects that should have gone deeper but overall I really liked it.

Thank you for Netgalley for the opportunity to read an ARC of this book.

The story follows Vita, a young woman who has an unknown chronic illness that generally leaves her bedridden and hallucinating. It is written in a stream of consciousness narrative that brings us through the turmoil she experiences throughout her days.

I was generally excited for this book, but had wildly different expectations than what it was. The writing itself was beautifully done, though I found myself skimming because of the content. I felt like the book was stagnant with little character development and lack of a plot. I think the concept is there, but it is definitely a book that requires a specific taste.

Overall, this book is one I hope to read again someday to find a better understanding and appreciation for it.

Vita was doing just fine before she got sick. She has a boyfriend who is fine and a job that is fine and her relationship with her family is fine, but then she is struck by a mysterious illness and has been housebound for months. The doctors don't know what's wrong with her, she can barely make it out of bed, and her only reliable companions are her goldfish Whitney Houston and a 500 year old ghost named Luigi. As she is stuck in bed, she reflects on her relationships, what she wants out of her life, and the many mistakes she's made in her past. Eventually, she meets her upstairs neighbors, an elderly woman and her young roommate, who have her reflecting on her life, where she has gone wrong, and how she can make it right. This was a quick, enjoyable read for me. It will be good for readers who enjoy character driven and introspective stories.

I feel like the cover of There's Nothing Wrong with Her does the book a huge disservice. The imagery looks like this would be a light-heared easy read. Instead, this is a fairly heavy story of a woman in the throws of depression and grief.

The writing from Kate Weinberg is exquisite. She's about to marry deep introspect with humor. This is a tough book to read, but it's covering topics rarely talked about in this manner.

Kate Weinberg is a woman to watch.

Thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for the opportunity to read and review this book.

This book deals with chronic unexplained illness. The people that surround Vita believe nothing is wrong with her. But, everything is wrong with her. Her illness is debilitating. Her loneliness is suffocating. And, she is haunted by regrets, grief, and lost love. Vita suffers from mental and physical health ailments that drag her into "The Pit" full of darkness and isolation. The author did an excellent job in the exploration of the complexities of one's identity, mental illness and human connection. I think this would be an excellent book club book. There is so much explored in this book about the experience of being a woman facing illness.

The premise of having a ghostly Renaissance writer visit you and keep you company while you rot away from an unknown illness is pretty interesting but the execution of the story wasn't there for me. I found it to be chaotic storytelling that was hard to piece together at times.

Kate Weinberg has written a beautiful thoughtful book ,I was drawn in from the first page as the leading character was isolated in her bed Whitney Huston her goldfish her only company for most of the time.#netgalley #putnambooks

This is a good book and it was very enjoyable and entertaining. It was written well and I enjoyed it. I thought that it was a 4 star read.

thank you netgalley for the e-arc. i thought the writing itself was well-done. i think that the description of the book is wildly different than the book i read. it was also kind of slow to get going and i kept reading until the end to see if anything gets rectified and it doesn't.

This novel is a poignant exploration of mental health, the complexities of modern relationships, and the journey of self-acceptance. "There's Nothing Wrong with Her" is a beautifully written, deeply emotional story that will leave you reflecting long after you've turned the last page.

Highly recommend this book for its brilliant storytelling and its heartfelt portrayal of the struggles many face in silence.

I enjoyed the premise of this story a lot. Invisible illnesses are so misunderstood and I think the author really wove her experience into Vita’s in an authentic way. To be a quick read, there’s a lot happening here - for better or worse. There’s childhood trauma, grief, relationship issues, and illness at play, and our narrator Vita isn’t always the most reliable. I felt bogged down at times by the many layers happening, and the somewhat absurd presence of a Renaissance ghost. I wish that the author would have chosen maybe 1-2 of the subplots to go deep on instead of lightly hitting on several. But overall this was an interesting and unique story about a woman’s internal world.

I love the found family with this book and what makes you happy. This book talks about the importance of advicating for yourself and standing up for yourself. It was a slower pace for me but overall a good book and unique story.

The plot summary sounded unique and quirky. I am a mood reader, and this one is interesting and has depth.

I appreciate the publisher and NetGalley for giving me an ARC.

The story didn’t go the way I expected, and this was both a little disappointing but also entertaining. I enjoyed reading from Vita’s point of view, although the other characters seemed a little one dimensional. There is no real answer to Vita’s illness, and the book ends rather vaguely, I was hoping for a more definitive ending. However, still a thought provoking and compelling commentary on identity, trauma and mental health.

A book about someone laying in bed chronically ill may not sound that interesting, but in the skilled hands of Kate Weinberg, it became so. Vita's agony became very real and her frustration intense. The frustration of her partner, Max, was also palpable. As Weinberg slowly exposed the tragedies of the past, I began to feel the emotional suffering that was dragging Vita into the abyss, her pit of pain. It seemed there was no way out. Yet, when an introduction to the dying old woman upstairs is forced upon her by a massive leak, a small crack is opened in the window of her tormented life. This is a quiet story giving much to mull over.

And I need to learn more about Luigi de Porta.

Thanks to NetGalley and G. P. Putnam and Sons for making an advance copy of this title available for an honest review.

This is a rather long internal monologue with visits from ghosts while the main character wrestles with chronic illness, grief, and her own trauma. At times she is rather one dimensional and vacuous. The other characters are briefly touched on, but not enough for them to have much value in this dark rambling of a fictional memoir.

Thank you to NetGalley for providing an eARC of this book, this is my objective review. I'm not sure how to describe this book, partly because I struggled to follow what was going on. I felt off-kilter while reading it and I'm not sure why, although I suspect it's partly because the main plot point is so enigmatic: what, exactly, is wrong with Vita? Is Luigi real or a hallucination? Is she physically ill or having a psychotic break? (Although, of course, both things can be true.) The ambiguity made it hard for me to fully sink into the story, although it does grab you quickly. The story is a bit dense with lots of undercurrents, and it definitely keeps you guessing. It's not a long book but it's also not a quick read. It was well-written but I think it may have been a little abstract for me. Also, there should be trigger warnings for this story; I won't give them to you here because of spoilers, but know that this book has deeper themes so proceed with caution.

This one didn't do anything for me. I liked the various threads and plot devices - the ghost, Rome0 & Juliet, past relationships rearing their heads, self-discovery, the podcast, the fish, the sister - but it just never coalesced into anything memorable. Vita didn't have a compelling or unique voice - it just felt like I was reading about what happens to someone, which is certainly good enough to pass an afternoon, but not worth submitting a review to Goodreads or nominating for LibraryReads However, I would still probably pick up the next thing the author writes because I am intrigued by all the ideas - if the characterization and the writing style came together a little differently, it might work better for me. My least favorite part was the central driving plot force: Mrs. Rothwell.

I was reminded a bit of other recent releases, including Worry (the sisters) and The Ministry of Time (Luigi), though I preferred the tone and style of those other two books over this one. The narrative arc and tone here felt reminiscent of Matt Haig's fiction. If any of the above titles or authors work for you, you may find this to be up your alley.

Thanks NetGalley and G.P. Putnam's Sons!
