The Authenticity Project by Clare Pooley
3.0
3.5 stars
An upbeat crowdpleaser. Its themes of loneliness, social connection, being authentic/ true to yourself, and looking past first impressions are timeless yet very current. It is pleasing to note that the story itself has authenticity woven into its DNA, with many aspects drawn from the personal experiences of the author.
Sometimes the characterisation and the plot seem a bit predictable, but not enough to stop you wanting to find out what happens next.
