The majority of this book had me cringing my tits off at the painfully accurate descriptions of modern day weddings. The last chapter had me ugly crying in a way a book has never made me ugly cry before. For 15 whole pages.

Nine months in the life of Tori who on the outside appears to have it all. Successful writer, inspiration speaker, long term boyfriend, owns a flat in London, always having fun (based on her Instagram), thin, pretty. But the outside is not always the truth.
I really enjoyed this book possibly as I am a similar age to Tori and can relate to some of her issues.
Essentially a story of the ebbs and flows of a long term relationship and dealing with your own insecurities while having to navigate the timelines we are meant to follow. Highly recommend as an engrossing and interesting read

Ich bin mittlerweile sehr überzeugt von Holly Bourne. Das hier ist ihr erstes Buch, das mehr an Erwachsene als an Teenager gerichtet ist, und auch damit komme ich super klar. Denn endlich erfahre ich ein paar wichtige Erkenntnisse rechtzeitig!
Man erkennt sich und die Gesellschaft, in der wir leben, total wieder in der Geschichte. Alle um einen herum werden erwachsen und tun Dinge, die allgemein erwartet werden und mit denen Erfolg gemessen wird: Verloben, Heiraten, Kinder kriegen. Es ist schrecklich, man will da nicht mitmachen, und zusammen mit der Protagonistin Tori will man sie alle hassen und anschreien.
Holy Bourne greift mal wieder die struggles einer Generation auf und stell klar (teilweise sehr deutlich und wörtlich), was gesund ist und was gar nicht OK ist.
Großes Lob und große Leseempfehlung!
