About this listen

A NATALIE PORTMAN'S BOOK CLUB PICK

One of The Boston Globes's "books to add to your summer reading list"

One of Vogue's “Best Beach Reads”

"Funny, smart and memorable...Delightful."–New York Times

"Consider Yourself Kissed is your new best friend in novel form."–The Cut

“Ringingly original and just absurdly good.”–Catherine Newman

“A love song to women everywhere.”–Annabel Monaghan

"This summer's must read...a sparkily enjoyable romantic comedy like One Day and Normal People."–The Times (London

What happens when you find love, but life keeps getting in the way?

When she first meets Adam, Coralie is new to London and feeling adrift. But Adam is clever, witty, and (he insists) a quarter inch taller than the average male. His charming four-year-old daughter only adds to his appeal.

But ten years on, something important is missing from the life Coralie and Adam (though let’s face it, mostly Coralie) have built. Or maybe, having gained everything she dreamed of, Coralie has lost something else she once had: herself.

Set against an eventful decade, Consider Yourself Kissed puts the subjects of love and family on a grand stage, showing how the intimate dramas in our homes inescapably compete for energy and attention with the shared public dramas of our times.

It's a book that effortlessly balances sweetness with bite, the public with the personal, and humor with heart.

Critic reviews

"Funny, smart and memorable, this contemporary romance offers a lucid example of how humanity can endure... Stanley’s delightful novel reminds her readers of the joy, humor and even subtle hope that can be experienced during life’s lowest moments."—New York Times

"Readers want different things from romance, and real and raw are two of them. Consider Yourself Kissed expertly layers the light and heavy elements of life, with a main character who is quick-witted and quietly perceptive, giving hope that a fire between two people may just survive many storms."—Washington Post

"A delight to behold...Lost woman tries to find herself is a familiar story, but Consider Yourself Kissed is buoyed by fresh, funny writing and, pretty much without exception, a terrific cast of characters."—Wall Street Journal
