About this listen

“Pure romance magic.”—Christina Lauren, New York Times bestselling author of Love & Other Words

“I loved how joyful, how thoughtful, and how real For Her Consideration was.”—New York Times bestselling author Jasmine Guillory

Perfect for fans of Casey McQuiston and Meryl Wilsner, a funny, heartwarming, and moving novel about bad breakups, found families, and embracing life.

A Buzzfeed LGBTQ Romance You’ve Got to Read

Since a crushing breakup three years ago, Nina Rice has written romance, friends, her dreams of scriptwriting for TV, and even LA proper out of her life. Instead, she’s safely out in the suburbs in her aunt’s condo working her talent agency job from home, managing celebrity email accounts, and certain that’s plenty of writing—and plot—for her life. But a surprise meeting called by Ari Fox, a young actress on everyone’s radar, stirs up all kinds of feelings Nina thought she’d deleted for good . . .

Ari is sexy, out and proud, and a serious control freak, according to Nina’s boss. She has her own ideas about how Nina should handle her emails—and about getting to know her ghostwriter. When she tells Nina she should be writing again, Nina suddenly finds it less scary to revisit her abandoned life than seriously consider that Ari is flirting with her. Between reconnecting with her old crew and working on a new script, a relationship with a movie star seems like something she’ll definitely mess up—but what could be more worth the risk?

Amy Spalding’s For Her Consideration is full of heat and heart as Nina learns that her story just might include the kind of love that lasts.

“A warm celebration of Los Angeles, chosen family, and learning how to love and be loved.”—Cameron Esposito, bestselling author of Save Yourself

“An optimistic, empathetic choice for readers, which highlights queer women pursuing creative careers and showcases a strong emotional growth arc.”–Library Journal

“A cozy comfort-read.”–Publishers Weekly

My new favorite modern queer story

I hope a world like this will some day be the norm for all of us. No homophobia. Just acceptance and love. That would be awfully nice indeed.

For Her Consideration

I loved this story! It was so freakin' cute and fun and romantic. I love Ari and Nina - their connection was amazing! At first, I was expecting Ari to be ice-queenish... but she wasn't even a little bit. She was super cool.

And I just have to say about Nina's ex... there's something to be said about the power someone's words can have over a person. Especially if that someone was considered to be extremely important to that person. I can understand how debilitated Nina felt, but also happy that she overcame the insecurities caused by her ex.

Anyways- good story! Definitely recommend it! The narration was pretty good too....thank you Sophie Amoss!

Finally, a fun and literary queer love story

It’s clear that Amy lives and loves in Los Angeles — this novel is a love letter to the city and to chosen family, to lesbians and to nonbinary people, and especially to fat femmes. It’s both literary and fun, like an elevated beach read. Great for readers of Emily Henry, Dolly Alderton, and Marian Keys — but with a fresh twist. I got so happily lost in the interiority of the novel. I felt so seen and beloved in these pages. Bravo! My favorite read of the summer! 🩵

Annoying main character

Thanks goodness for the rest of the characters because the main character was incredibly whiny, dumb and annoying.

Finding belonging

I enjoyed this story for the lively depiction of characters. Everyone felt fleshed out and the dialogue did as well. My only gripe would be that our main gal, Nina seemed a little “one note” with her thought pattern that she was this “cursed, toxic person”. My thought is, if she knew that she had this supposed issue, it would make a lot more sense if she tried to seek therapy sooner. But stigma being what it is….I can see why not. Either way, a pleasant read and I will check out this author more.

Fat girls need love too

I really liked this book. A bit like “Shrill” but with a happier ending. Good slow burn. One of my favorites in a long time.

Absolutely Loved!

A happily ever after tale that involved personal transformation as well as the girl getting the girl. I was engaged all the way through. I enjoyed all the characters. The setting was fun. I felt affirmed by having a gorgeous, fat, queer protagonist. My body image improved just from reading the book. And the narrator was fantastic. I will now go read more by Amy Spalding, who is new to me.
