Reviews

Praise for Emma Gannons debut novel, OLIVE:

It explores such an important topic with a lightness and warmth Dolly Alderton

Thoughtful, searching, funny, and (most importantly) honest Elizabeth Gilbert

Funny in parts, painful in others, thoughtful throughout, it explores many dilemmas, with characters who feel utterly real Sophie Kinsella

It'll give a voice to countless women a profound issue wrapped inside an accessible, highly engaging novel Marian Keyes

Gutsy and refreshing HEAT

In Gannons capable hands, women are not so much divided along their disparate lines but united Pandora Sykes

It's warm and charming and yet VERY brave in its honesty about having children and how that impacts female friendships. I suspect a lot of women will feel relieved and seen when they read it Holly Bourne

Important themes explored by a true champion of women Nina Stibbe

Thought provoking with a wonderfully relatable hero Good Housekeeping

So fresh and funny and utterly distinctive I loved it Emma Jane Unsworth

A delicate, heartbreaking and delicious story that will bring a pang of delightful recognition to every woman who reads it Scarlett Curtis

A witty, tender portrayal of female friendship under pressure Mail on Sunday

Honest, relatable, and incredibly real, Olive is going to resonate with an entire generation of young women Louise ONeill

Cuts rights to the heart of conversations around women and the stereotypes we either adhere to or reject Cosmopolitan
