The author of The Radio 2 Book Club Pick, The Shelf, returns with a new hilarious, thought-provoking, and funny novel. Genius, funny, and thought-provoking. 5 stars Carrie Hope Fletcher. Helly's writing is filled with such humor and warmth, it makes me laugh and think while seamlessly tackling complex ideas about modern society. What a triumph! Abigail Mann. So clever, so thought-provoking, I loved it Sophie Cousens. A fresh, funny, razor-sharp take on society's views of relationships. It's feminist, it's provocative, and a total joy to read Hannah Tovey. Funny and clever. I loved every single line Lucy Vine. Millie is a perfectionist. She's happy, she's successful, and, with a great support network of friends and family (and a very grumpy cat), she's never lonely. She loves working at a big tech firm and is on track to be promoted to her dream role. The last thing she needs is romance messing up her perfectly organized world. Besides, normal people just don't have romantic relationships. Everyone knows that being in a couple is a bit. . . well, odd. You know, like having a pet snake or referring to yourself in the third person. Why rely on another person for your own happiness? Why risk the humiliation of unrequited love or the agony of a break-up? No, Millie is more than happy with her conventional single life. So, when Millie lands a new project at work, launching a pill that prevents you from falling in love, it seems like the opportunity of a lifetime. That is, until she starts working with Ben. He's charming and funny, and Millie feels an instant connection to him. Will Millie sacrifice everything she believes in for love? Look out for Helly's debut novel, The Shelf.
