Description

Sparky dialogue and a lovely depiction of friendship. I loved this!' Katie Fforde

This story is a celebration of the people that bring you back to life when your world closes in: your mates. Relationships come and go, but the Break-up Club membership never truly expires.
THERES NEVER BEEN A BETTER TIME TO BE SINGLE . . .

Holly Braithwaite and loveable loser Lawrence have been together for five years. But the obvious cracks in their relationship can no longer be ignored and Holly soon finds herself saying its not me, its you.

In the shock aftermath of their break up, Holly finds unlikely companions in Olivia, Harry and Bella. Together, they form the Break-Up Club, as they support each other through their mutual melancholy and find ways to love, laugh and function as human beings again.

A lively portrayal of bonds that blossom only among the broken-hearted, with a delightfully meta edge Helen Cox

'That rare breed of writer with a gift for making slyly humorous comments that seem to roll off her keyboard. Made me want to break up with someone, just so I could join the club immediately. Part comedy, part self-help, but wholly fabulous B&H Indpendent

Witty, knowing and heartfelt The Book Doctor

"At last! A true tale of what it's like to break-up. Funny, warm and heartfelt. Made me want to join the break up club immediately. Loved it!' Brighton & Hove Independent

Fearlessly funny, this book was such a pleasure to read I have to give a rare 5 stars. A perfect balance between exaggeration for humour and "I've been there" real-life believability. A modern, British "Friends" with brilliant groansome puns Erin Lawless

Break-Up Club, is a fun-filled read, balancing laugh out loud moments with flashes of real empathy for break up buccaneers experiences. I completely loved Holly and her unashamed honesty. Love and friendship shone through the laugh out loud moments. Loved the twists and turns and that it kept me guessing all the way to the end. Like Friends with lots of wordplay thrown in. Jules Wake
