Vacuum in the Dark is the second novel written by Jen Beagin and published in 2019 by Simon & Schuster.[1] It is the sequel to Pretend I'm Dead. NPR Books described the work as "a funny and surprisingly sweet book about a young woman who grew up too fast and is trying desperately to reinvent herself."[2]

Vacuum in the Dark, "a welcome sequel to one of last year’s most exciting debuts," according to a starred Kirkus review, was named a best book for February 2019 by Oprah Magazine.[3] Publishers Weekly has a starred review of "a sharp and superb novel" which "pulls no punches—this novel is viciously smart and morbidly funny."[4] That sentiment is echoed in The New York Times Book Review which said, "This novel is a joy: truly laugh-out-loud funny, while staying grounded and dignified, even as Mona capsizes again and again."[5]

Literary Hub featured an excerpt of "Poop," the first chapter of Vacuum in the Dark.[6]

The title has been published in the UK and as a paperback, both with new book cover artwork.[7] Reportedly FX is working on a television show starring Lola Kirke.[8]
