Sexy, funny and deeply heart-warming, Romantic Comedy is a triumph.

This story reads like a conversation. It is not filled with drama and action, but raw human emotion and interaction. I’ve never read prose like this before and I loved it. I listened to the audio book and found myself giggling at my desk at the end of Chapter 2.

I’ll now be buying the physical copy because I need to read this again and desperately need to make notes!

Two of my favourite lines:

1. “If you were a musician, you got to be viscerally magical.”
2. “When I’m talking to you, I’m a funnier and smarter version of myself because you are funny and smart.”
