From the New York Times bestselling author of Everything I Know About Love and Ghosts: 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. With an ingenious feat of narrative, Dolly Alderton offers up a love story with two endings, an act of emotional honesty that establishes her as one of our most exciting writers and demonstrates yet again why she is “quite simply, the bard of modern day love” (—Lena Dunham).

  • Hope for more

    Very slow read and repetitive story line for 2/3 of book but I liked the ending.

  • Good read!

    So this is the first rom-com book I’ve ever read and I’m honestly able to say I enjoyed it. Experiencing the relatable ups and downs with Andy and the characters that surround him was fun. At times, the story felt slow but it is a page turner. :]

  • Slow start with powerful ending

    I had a hard time getting into the story. It took a very long time to go through the whining, but it had a satisfactory ending.

  • Good material

    Seriously how incredibly self indulgent and shallow can one be.

  • A breath of fresh air

    Funny, witty, emotional, and soulful. I enjoyed every letter of this book. So cleverly written, I could see the characters vividly in my mind.
