Seven Exes made me laugh out loud. It's fresh, fast-paced and joyous. Lucy Vine's writing is so warm and funny - her books are the literary equivalent of an amazing girls' night out BETH O'LEARY

Esther is out with her two friends, bemoaning her lack of relationship, when she finds a magazine from the noughties. Seeking comfort – and a laugh – she turns to the dating advice only to find an article that feels a little too close to home. According to the journalist, there are seven people a woman will date before finding the one:

The First Love, The Work Mistake, The Friend with Benefits, The Overlap, The Missed Chance, The Bastard and The Serious One.

Her friends laugh but Esther realises each of her exes fits these roles perfectly. Deciding that she’s mistaken her true love in the reject pile, she decides to contact each of her exes to find out which is the one that got away...

'Clever, perceptive and screamingly funny...a book you'll never, ever want to break up with' LAUREN BRAVO

'Funny, hopeful and agonisingly relatable, Esther is all of us. Lucy Vine writes with such compelling honesty, Seven Exes made me laugh, made me cry and made me want to call all my friends to tell them I loved them then call my exes to apologise/punch them in the nuts. Equal parts romcom and life lesson, it's a must-read' LINDSEY KELK

Riotously funny, charming, and nostalgic, Seven Exes is a truly optimistic look at turning thirty and all the mess that can come with. Superb!' LAURA JANE WILLIAMS

‘A joy to read. I adore everything Lucy writes but I think this is her best one yet' HOLLY BOURNE

'It’s clever, charming and addictive – it’s everything you want from a romantic comedy' YOU online
