“The perfect book for any woman who has been told by a man to smile, who’s been asked why she can’t take a joke, who has to shoulder the responsibility for a man’s disreputable actions. This is an unputdownable paean to female rage and retribution.”—#1 New York Times bestselling author Jodi Picoult

“I am OBSESSED. This book is going to become my whole personality.”—Sarah MacLean, New York Times bestselling author of These Summer Storms

“An honest, unflinching story of female rage and the persistence of legends. Molly Fader’s vibrant characters and singing prose will grip you from the first page, and as you travel from modern Hollywood to 1970s New York, it feels as seamless and compelling as a movie. This is a truly powerful reading experience.”—Simone St. James, New York Times bestselling author of Murder Road

“Bold, atmospheric, and furious, this explosive thrill ride of a book spans the country, the last four decades, and the breadth of female rage. This is a smart, cathartic book for right exactly now, and I could not put it down.”—Joshilyn Jackson, New York Times bestselling author of Missing Sister

“In this powder keg of a novel, Fader takes the reader on a literary ride through some of the worst—and most universal—experiences of womanhood. Lady X is the outlet for feminist rage that we all need right now. This is incendiary, cathartic, and deeply satisfying.”—Heather Marshall, bestselling author of Liberty Street

“This intense yet thoughtful novel pulses with mystery and secrets, and its two time periods are perfectly detailed. Fader explores women’s rage across generations.”—Booklist, starred review
