This ended up being a one-day audio book read for me as it was quite an easy book to listen to as the story was light-hearted and quite funny at times. 

I enjoyed how Dolly has portrayed Nina trying to navigating being at a different point in her life to her friends in a way which didn't make her seem bitter or resentful. Nina's friendship with Lola was my favourite and really enjoyed these character interactions. I liked the writing style throughout the audio book but feel that the plot itself is where it fell a bit short for me. 

For a story which is heavily character focused, we don't really see any long-lasting or significant development in Nina (MFC) making similar mistakes (particularly in the romance department) in parts 1 and part 2 of the book. 

I mean being ghosted twice by the same person is mad - especially with the super lame excuses he came up with ghosting her the first time. Just made me feel like she didn’t develop at all as a character.

The plot line around her neighbour whilst funny, didn't really go anywhere which was a shame and the deterioration of her dad's mental state felt like it could have had more depth to be more impactful. 

Whilst this storyline isn't one I'd likely re-read, I am curious to check out Dolly's other work based on how much i enjoyed the writing style.
