Such a lovely play! I had the opportunity to see it back in 2018 but I didn’t make the effort to go, and I truly regret that :’(

Jessie Cave (famously Lavender Brown from the Harry Potter films) has been a favorite of mine for a long time! During my great Harry Potter renaissance of 2013, I fell in love with her web series “Flat Whites.” She’s just got this almost painfully quirky half-cynical, half-hopeful, colorful style that really resonates with me. I highly recommend her amazing podcast with her sister Bebe, “We Can’t Talk About That Right Now”!

A strong yet short book, a play that feels more like a confessional diary. Interesting read, felt close to the writer

I bought this book because of the doodles Jessie puts up on Instagram about love and relationships. They are sarcastic and many times, pessimistic. This play was not anything like that.
There is introspection and a ray of hope of things falling into place eventually.
She is vulnerable, gritty, honest and funny.
