A fun, lighthearted rom-com with a heroine who gets herself into twisted situations while looking for love. If you like Sophie Kinsella, you’ll enjoy this book.
This book was slow, boring and had a lackluster, complicated finish.
This was a fun, girlfriend-type-of-read book.
Charlotte navigates life like so many single people I know...Work, social dinners/drinks, sleep, AND REPEAT. I love that she sought out a way to make a change. The Sorry Not Sorry challenges were interesting and quite forward for my taste. However, it was fun to experience this through her.
Overall a light read with some diving into relationships (platonic, romantic, and otherwise). I did not expect the "twist" at the end. It leaves me with so many questions about Sloane. I am secretly hoping we get a separate story on her alone.

Loved all the layers to this romcom! It was a bit slow to start, but really picked up 😁
This was a cute book. It was marketed as humor, but I honestly didn’t find it that humorous. I found it cute and endearing and hard at times, but not super funny. It was tough figuring out all the British lingo in the book, but I enjoyed Charlotte and her story.
Charlotte is a 20-something good girl who loves her job, hasn’t had a boyfriend or a “shag” in over a year, and finds herself alone after her best friend and fiancé move to the London suburbs prior to their wedding. Her new roommates include the tall, gorgeous Tansy and reclusive, grumpy Adam. Knowing she needs to get out of a rut, she Googles “How to find love, sex and happiness,”stumbles across an old Podcast called ‘Sorry, Not Sorry” and begins to follow the advice on how to be a bad girl, leading to all sorts of adventures and complications. Will she end up finding her own happily-ever-after or find herself still “single at seventy-two?”
This latest book from best-selling author Sophie Ranald is a fun beach read that relies on well-worn literary devices such as the mean girl, love triangles, main character low self-esteem (especially in comparison to the modelesque Tansy), and more. The plot is relatively predictable with some minor twists and subplots, but foreshadowing makes it pretty easy to predict who she’ll end up with in the end. There are somewhat graphic sex scenes which might be off-putting to some readers.
Despite the somewhat slow start, over-abundance of British slang, and pop culture references that will quickly date the book (“I typed ‘US presidential erection’ instead of ‘election’ in the report I was compiling for Piers, noticing just before I sent it to him. The idea of Trump’s todger was sufficiently off-putting to drive all thoughts of sex from my mind”), it will appeal to fans of Sophie Kinsella and Jill Mansell.
