Thank you Harper Collins UK. Harper Impulse and Netgalley for allowing me to review thus book xx
This was a good quirky read, the cover bright and cheerful just like the characters in the book. I look forward to following them into the following books.

Received this book from NetGalley in exchange for a review.

First, let me warn you that there is a lot of British slang in here so if you a) aren't British or b) aren't comfortable not knowing what things mean, you may want to skip this one. That being said, this book was just okay for me. The story starts out in present day with two of the seven friends getting engaged. It then goes back in time to when all of them meet in college and takes you through a series of events that changes the dynamic of the group forever and then goes back to present day. I had a problem with how much the "offending" friend was villianized by her roommates but then again I had a problem with how she treated her male friend as well so there you go. I will say that I got angry with the characters a lot which speaks to the author's writing quite well because usually if I get mad, it means the characters are getting to me in one way or the other. I can't say anything more without spoilers and I don't like to give spoilers so you'll have to see what you think for yourself. Okay, just writing this review has made me mad at all of them again.… (mehr)

I was completely hooked right from the start of this one and had quite a late night reading! I liked the layout of the chapters with sections on Alex and Nadia. Alex working in the Home Office with pointless Friday afternoon team meetings and Nadia wanting to poke her eyes out with a fork rather than watch daytime TV.

It's fate that brings Alex and Nadia together at a pub quiz, right after he has passed along her application to stay in the UK. There's a definite spark between Alex and Nadia but Alex doesn't really notice it so when Nadia meets Matt the same night she agrees to go out with him. Alex and Nadia become friends and you can feel their relationship growing whilst Nadia's relationship with Matt is very flat. Events always seem to conspire against Alex and Nadia as each time you think they're going to get together something happens to get in their way.

Alex and Nadia have an amazing time going through Nadia's bucket list of things to do in London before she's deported. I could really feel the buzz of the city and Nadia is so vibrant whilst Alex is so British! I liked all of the characters in the book and felt the strong bond of friendship between Nadia and Holly shining through the pages.

It's a really excellent feel good book which doesn't have a predictable ending but leaves us instead with a message to make our own lives extraordinary.

I received this e-book from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I dragged the last chapters of this book out to make it last longer. That's probably the highest praise I can offer.
