I've never read a book that I didn't really like at first to then actually laughing out loud! I actually loved it in the end!

I absolutely LOVEEEEED this book! I could not put it down and finished it over two days! Some of the one liners were absolutely brilliant. Being from these parts the language just fit so well and was very easy to read & just too relatable!
Zara is a modern-day Bridget Jones, with the love life to match. A student nurse just weeks away from finally qualifying, she hops onto dating apps to try and land herself a prince—but all she seems to find are frogs. And oh, are there plenty of them!
Zara's an infinitely relatable character; she's funny and goofy and constantly second-guessing herself. She has many a mishap, is far too preoccupied with social media for her own good, and spends an awful lot of time fretting about her looks, her weight, and dating faux pas. In short, she's like every twenty-something woman I've ever known! The girly brunches with best friend & sister genuinely felt like every gossip session I've had with my mates, complete with stories of terrible dates, embarrassing moments, and lurid sex stories.
A lot of laugh out loud moments, a lot of cringe and a lot of Scottish humour!

This book fell flat for me.
The FMC is so obsessed with men, like teenage level obsessed with men. The character read like a 20 year old, not a 29 year old. The book is steeped in fat-phobia too. At one point she says she’s a Size 12, then spends the rest of the book going on about how fat she is and how she needs to lose weight and be skinny. It’s basically a personality trait.
The FMC has a real problem with self-love and self respect. Being with a guy for three weeks doesn’t warrant a week-long depressive episode in bed.
Only gets two stars for being set in Glasgow
