“I think what Eliza has managed to do in her new memoir is to cheer on the inner nerd who lives inside of us all. I laughed out loud so many times at the banal yet totally fascinating situations she found herself in—and could relate to how life can be completely and wonderfully unpredictable. Read this book and get to know one of the most interesting women I've ever met.” — JANN ARDEN, #1 bestselling author of The Bittlemores and Feeding My Mother

“Eliza Reid is brilliant, passionate, and accomplished—yet funny as heck and so down to earth. Read The First Lady Next Door and you will feel you have made a truly remarkable new best friend.” — JEANNETTE WALLS, #1 bestselling author of The Glass Castle

“An intimate, engaging memoir that details Reid's life as Iceland's First Lady, this book is also a potent argument for female identity and being true to yourself even when you're on constant display. This is a warm-hearted, smart read that is a real delight.” — SUSAN ORLEAN, bestselling author of Joyride and The Library Book

“What do you do when your ordinary life suddenly includes royal carriages, state visits, photo sessions, and invitations to the White House? I raced through this delightful, thought-provoking memoir, in which Eliza Reid explains how she made the most of an unexpected opportunity by finding and using her voice as Iceland’s First Lady.” — GRETCHEN RUBIN, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Happiness Project and Secrets of Adulthood

“With her lovely debut memoir, former first lady Eliza Reid shows women (and anyone paying attention) how to set their own course and defy expectations. She does so with a disarming humor, deep self-reflection and a core set of values that never waver, even when her life takes dramatic turns.”  — STACEY ABRAMS, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Coded Justice and Rogue Justice
