Plot: It's easy to put someone in the friend's zone. But what happens if you change your mind?
A fabulous debut! Frank, keenly observed and funny - the mishaps Bea finds herself provided plenty of laughter, a tin of coconut milk & a certain date especially.

"I've never really thought of myself as a (deluded) optimist until now"

People: Bea is a flawed, genuine, and well-round character you can't help but root for!

Peter is quirky but adorable right from the start, we all need someone like him in our lives.

The rest of the cast is fleshed out easy to imagine, Bea's relationship with her bestie was true to life, reflective of the highs and lows that come with it.

Pace: This is a medium-paced novel, a light-hearted read that won't fail to bring a smile to your face. I can't wait to see what McCulloch brings us next.

Pick up if you enjoy: Emily Henry & Anna Bell.
