About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
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.

Beautiful and thoughtful
I loved this book. So beautifully written and thoughtful. The characters were well thought out and the details of human nature and relationships were beautifully explored and unpacked. Loved it and would recommend it to anyone.

Enjoyable and additive!
I couldn't stop listening to this book! As a 29 year old a lot resonated with me. The only thjnk that I didn't think fitted was the relationship with the neighbour, I thought that was bizarre!

Loved it!
Great narration. I laughed and cried in equal measure. Sentimental and hopeful. A modern day Bridget Jones without the idiocy.

Loved the refreshing look at early, crazy love.
Brilliantly written without using words I've never heard of. Fabulous totally new phrases for my enjoyment drop in all over the place. I loved the take on child-men, or adults who aren't grown up, declare their love too soon, don't realise what it means and then disappear, thinking they've done nothing wrong, damaging or unkind. I love the way Nina dealt with everything. Particularly her 'troubled' neighbour. Though the way she dealt with it was a huge shock. But clearly, it worked. Very original.
Loved Holliday Granger's protagonist voice, but the 'male' voices were something else! Hard to do.

Not bad not good
I love Dolly I don’t love the book. I know Dolly can do better. This was too much of a millennial version of all the other rom coms we’ve seen and read before. Sorry!!

Loved it!
Great narration by Holliday Grainger, an early review nearly put me off but I’m glad I went for it! Very sensitively written, on life and love.

Keen to hear more from both Alderton and Grainger!
I enjoyed this audiobook a lot, Nina and Dolly were very relatable characters. It gave me a lot to reflect on being a similar age to the protagonists. Holliday Grainger is a brilliant narrator, really brought this book to life and I'm glad I chose to listen rather than read it. I look forward to more from both author and narrator!

Brilliantly relatable
It took my by surprise how comforting it was to listen to a character go through the exact same experience myself and so many of my friends have gone through, and gave me some hope for the future!

Great feel good book!
Excellently written and brilliantly read! Lots of twists and turns that make it hard to 'put down' and stop listening. Loved it!
