--Booklist, STARRED review "With an atmosphere that is sexy, enchanting, and unsettling, Rumaan Alam's expert fourth novel probes concepts of privilege, wealth, value, and morality."
--Shelf Awareness "Alam is quickly emerging as one of the best social novelists working today. . . . It's a book about what it's like to be alive today. As engaging as it is unnerving."

Succession, put
Entitlement on your TBR."
--BookPage "Should
come with an undertow warning . . . I was pulled under. Rumaan Alam has mastered that eerie moment when an ordinary gesture has the potential for disaster."
--Louise Erdrich, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of The Night Watchman "
Entitlement is needle-sharp: discomfiting, disquieting, mesmerizing. Alam taps deep into the greed and ambition that make us human."
--Rebecca Makkai, New York Times bestselling author of The Great Believers "Held me spellbound from its evocative opening to its startling, audacious last pages."
--Danzy Senna, nationally bestselling author of Colored Television "These characters, their money, and their morality come together in an absolutely devastating thunderclap."

Entitlement felt like having a vise slowly tightened around my heart. . . . Elegant, precise and devastating."
--Charles Yu, National Book Award-winning author of Interior Chinatown
