THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER, FROM THE AUTHOR OF EVERYTHING I KNOW ABOUT LOVE

Narrated by Holliday Grainger, star of Lady Chatterley's Lover, Tell it to the Bees and Animals.

He said ‘I love you’. And then he disappeared.

Things that are going right for Nina Dean:

  • She’s found her dream job.
  • She finally has her own home.
  • She’s met Max, a beguiling romantic hero who has swept her off her feet.

Things that are going wrong for Nina Dean:

  • She has the neighbour from hell.
  • Her friendships are fracturing, and so is her parents’ marriage.
  • She hasn’t seen or heard from Max for weeks.

Just as everything ought to be falling into place, it’s all falling apart instead. Nina’s beloved dad’s memory is slipping away from him, and her mum is caught in a baffling mid-life glow-up. Her friends are becoming strangers and her exes are moving on. Everywhere she turns, she’s reminded of time passing.

The last thing she needs is another ghost.

I loved it

What a book! I ate it up in no time. A timely tale of being a 30 something (single) woman today.

Easy listening

Pretty mundane plot but nice and relatable. Easy to listen to whilst doing other things - doesn’t require too much attention! Found most of the voices a bit irritating.

Good story; terrible voices

The voice of max and Nina’s dad sound like someone putting on a joke voice. Dangerously close to ruining and distracting from the really good story

Easy read

I really liked the idea of this novel and the overall theme is so relatable! I felt nina Dean was dolly herself and similar to her first book, although the first book wasnt a novel. I love dollys writing so I was going to enjoy it regardless.

Brilliant - aptly captures dating in the 21st century!

Funny, vulnerable and honest - really enjoyed this sometimes lighthearted book. Recommended if you’ve tried and failed at online dating 😎
