Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

From the bestselling author of Ghosts and Everything I Know About Love: a
sharply funny, beautifully observed and exquisitely relatable story of heartbreak and friendship, and how to survive both.

Andy loves Jen. Jen loved Andy.
And he can't work out why she stopped.

Now he is. . .
1. Without a home
2. Waiting for his stand-up career to take off
3. Wondering why everyone else around him seems to have grown up while he wasn't looking

Set adrift on the sea of heartbreak at a time when everything he thought he knew about women, and flat-sharing, and his friendships has transformed beyond recognition, Andy clings to the idea of solving the puzzle of their broken relationship. Because if he can find the answer to that, then maybe Jen can find her way back to him.

Andy still has a lot to learn, not least his ex-girlfriend's side of the story.

Reviews

Leaves you heartsore but happier. Irresistible Have you ever wondered what a lost love was thinking? In this ingeniously constructed and endlessly amusing novel, Dolly Alderton flips the script on everything we think we know about romantic loss, to bring us an unforgettable character on a deeply relatable downward spiral. Wise and relatable and pee-your-pants funny. I cried by page 5. Dolly Alderton is, quite simply, the bard of modern day love Made me laugh while punching me in the gut. Loved this book Sharply written and acutely observed ... A beautifully nuanced portrayal of modern love that will have you racing to the last page It's so good. I loved it Laugh-out-loud dialogue on every page ... No-one has a firmer grasp on the themes she explores. Good material, indeed Funny, sad and true; a book she has clearly poured her soul into ... Cements her status as a fiction heavyweight If Dollyโ€™s memoir Everything I Know About Love summed up being twentysomething then this, her second novel, is a tender and funny love letter to our tumultuous 30s Brilliantly observed โ€ฆ Beautifully written, pacy and excellent on rejection, friendship and letting go. Fabulous This is the greatest. Youโ€™ll cry and laugh. I read it through the night. And I never, ever avoid sleep Expand reviews
