Review

I am obsessed with this book. A warm, wise, magnanimous and extremely funny novel which made me fall in love with the characters and feel happier about life. Sittenfeld writes with such insight and poignancy about the quirks of the human condition. ROMANTIC COMEDY should be prescribed to anyone needing their mood lifted - ELIZABETH DAY

No-one writes romantic yearning as brilliantly and believably as Curtis Sittenfeld. I could not have adored this book more. - DAISY BUCHANAN, author of INSATIABLE

A rollercoaster of modern love and dating - STYLIST, Books to look forward to in 2023

Probably my favourite proof I've read for 2023, by one of my all-time favourite authors Curtis Sittenfeld... it's a brilliantly written, funny page-turner, I want to read it all again. - PANDORA SYKES

Her zingy new novel. While Sittenfeld knows the dramatic value of putting obstacles in the path of characters you're rooting for, she also isn't above giving readers what they want - and that's exactly what she does in this affable, intelligently-crafted tale of work and love - GUARDIAN

Biting, pacy and great fun. - SUNDAY TIMES, Books to Look Forward to

A gloriously quick-witted, intelligent love story, with sparkling dialogue and a satisfying plot - THE BOOKSELLER

One of the most compelling, funny and gorgeous novels I've read in a long time. Curtis Sittenfield is a master of dialogue, and this love story packs serious emotional heft that will leave you rooting for its characters right til the very end. - OTEGHA UWAGBA

I love Curtis Sittenfeld - BRYONY GORDON

i am excited beyond belief. This is THE literary event of the year for me - MARINA HYDE

Curtis has a gift for writing women. Her characters spill off the page in all their messy, complex glory - STYLIST

Curtis Sittenfeld's zingy new novel tackles media celebrity, the pandemic and romantic frustration with ambition and panache...[An] affable, intelligently crafted tale of work and love - OBSERVER

A witty, joyful, propulsive new take on the 'celebrity and the civilian' trope, Sittenfeld's novel feels like a classic dish prepared by a master chef and using only the freshest ingredients. I was so sad to say goodbye to these characters; I could have read 300 more pages, easily - CAROLINE O'DONOGHUE

The abiding pleasure of romantic comedy is that we can worry that they won't while knowing that they will. The genre acts as its own spoiler alert while somehow never lessening the suspense - WASHINGTON POST

Getting inside a living person's head sounds like a colossally bad idea, but Sittenfeld makes it convincing here, just as she did with a character based on First Lady Laura Bush in her 2008 novel, American Wife - BBC CULTURE
