“Carefully spun, with gritty insights about the music industry and a young woman’s journey to becoming the songwriter she was always meant to be… A magical novel.”
— The Southern Review of Books
“This book simmers with one-line zingers that boil into a can't-put-down stunner of a storyline that’ll have you speed reading to the last page.”
— Marie Claire
“Like a sultry country song itself, Lo Fi sees Hunter navigate her way through dating, heartbreak, and difficult but transformational decisions.”
—W Magazine
“Lusty… Riggs is best in her sardonic depictions of her protagonist’s milieu, delineating Nashville’s desperate strivers, hipster know-it-alls, and slick industry insiders, all of whom are outnumbered by the huge crowds that show up for cover bands… Music lovers will devour this.”
— Publishers Weekly
“Lo Fi is a smart and sexy literary rom com that will have you flying through the pages, rooting for Al Hunter as she navigates professional mishaps, sexual escapades, new and complicated friendships.”
— GenTwenty
“Riggs’ novel is vital, electric. Al is magnetic, and readers will root for her, eagerly following her triumphs and her heartaches. . . . A dynamic rock song of a novel from an exciting debut author.”
— Kirkus Reviews
