Cracking Aussie sad girl novel that doesn't secretly want to be set in New York. Four stars on sense of place  alone. 
The half star comes from this:
Me, texting a mate halfway through: omg this book is so funny can't wait to loan it to you 
Me, after finishing the book, walking outside at 3 AM scrolling through sperm donors: maybe read this book with caution 
(interpret the star in direction of your choice)
