Similar vibe as “Love Actually,” but set during lockdown instead of Christmas. I really enjoyed it.
“It's disconcerting, like someone stuck the whole world on pause.”
This book is following 5 sets of people who got stuck with each other because of lockdown. The first one is Isla who is stuck with her new boyfriend, Imogen who has no choice but to stay with a one night stand, Serena who is spending her time with a boyfriend who she realises likes pineapples on pizza, Ethan whose girlfriend got locked out so he is by himself in the flat, and Olivia who was forced to sleepover with 3 other girlfriends after a bachelorette party.
It is interesting to look back at what it was like when covid first started, when we were all uncertain on what would happen when everything went into lockdown. When we were all struggling to get food, when everything needs to be sanitised.
This books showed different relationship dynamics and how everyone deals with being stuck with someone you like and/or don't like. I enjoyed all the stories particularly Ethan's, Olivia's was the one I didn't really love just because I thought the characters were immature.
