***The first novel from the award-winning, bestselling author of Everything I Know About Love***''I love this book. It is wise, funny, tender and true, sharply-observed and utterly hilarious. Dolly Alderton''s talent is phenomenal'' Elizabeth Day br>__________________________________________________Nina Dean has arrived at her early thirties as a successful food writer with loving friends and family, plus a new home and neighbourhood. When she meets Max, a beguiling romantic hero who tells her on date one that he''s going to marry her, it feels like all is going to plan.A new relationship couldn''t have come at a better time - her thirties have not been the liberating, uncomplicated experience she was sold. Everywhere she turns, she is reminded of time passing and opportunities dwindling. Friendships are fading, ex-boyfriends are moving on and, worse, everyone''s moving to the suburbs. There''s no solace to be found in her family, with a mum who''s caught in a baffling mid-life makeover and a beloved dad who is vanishing in slow-motion into dementia.Dolly Alderton''s debut novel is funny and tender, filled with whip-smart observations about relationships, family, memory, and how we live now.br>____________________________________________________Praise for Dolly Alderton ''I loved it so much, I wanted it to go on forever, Dolly Alderton is so gifted at making people care. A rare talent'' Marian Keyes''A wonderful writer, who will surely inspire a generation the way that Caitlin Moran did before her'' Julie Burchill''Deeply funny, sometimes shocking, and admirably open-hearted and optimistic . . . Mesmerising, brilliant '' Daily Telegraph''Sensitive, astute and funny'' Observer''Alderton''s wise words can resonate with women of all ages. She feels like a best friend and your older sister all rolled into one and her pages wrap around you like a warm hug'' Evening Standard>
