Fierce, funny and raw, this unflinchingly honest exploration of heartbreak is so much more than a book about one single break-up 'Arresting and vivid, raw and breathtaking...told with stunning originality.' Dolly Alderton 'Painful while it sloughs away the dead romantic ideals, leaving you cleansed, reborn and gorgeously satisfied.' Pandora Sykes 'A beautiful tender messy brilliant generous open-hearted book.' Emma Gannon This is a love story told in reverse. It's about the best and worst of love: the euphoric and the painful. The beautiful and the messy. Reeling from a broken heart, Annie Lord revisits the past - from the moment she first fell in love, the shared in-jokes and intertwining of a long-term relationship, to the months that saw the slow erosion of a bond five years in the making. It is an unflinchingly honest reminder of the simultaneous joy and pain of being in love that will resonate with anyone that has ever nursed a broken heart. 'An electrifying debut.' Caroline O'Donoghue 'Annie Lord tells us a story at once both specific and universal.' Shon Faye

This hit hard. Like, it touched my soul and everything else lurking inside. It was so beautifully written and so so relatable, i wish i found this a year or two ago. I wish i could have read this when i needed it the most.
This book was not only sad, but it was healing. It healed me. I feel so different and so much better about myself. I understand why I reacted the way I did back when I was suffering through one. I understand that love can make you become someone else and I got it when she talked about moulding yourself to the other person's needs.
This book was excellent and so well written. However, through the end, it just became redundant and felt a bit too long so I had skimmed through.
