'I absolutely loved it. Anyone interested in the relationship between tech, our bodies and our minds should bump it to the top of their queue immediately' - Zadie Smith, author of The Fraud
'This bold and highly impressive debut novel has its thumb right over the sore spots of modern life' - Guardian
Mary is single, jobless, and on her way to Ibiza.
There, at a party, she meets Tom, a brilliant chemist on the verge of launching a new drug that claims to cure the anxieties of modern life.
Back in London after a heady trip, Mary begins going out with Tom and working for her sort-of-ex Lara, who has created innovative dating app designed to revolutionize the industry. As tech and pharma collide, she is forced to question what love and success mean in a world that is hurtling out of control.

A novel I couldn't stop reading. A stunning, sharp description of modern life and it's interplay with social media.
I cannot wait for more books by Mariel Franklin. This novel was very well written. Each of the characters feels very real. The protagonist is a lovable young woman, struggling to find and keep a job in London, and living in a miserable apartment with a flatmate. One immediately feels connected to her, and the beautiful bonding and love she develops with Tom. The story is beautiful in itself, but also allows the characters to expose a non-judgemental, honest description of modern city life, social media's effects, alcohol, the dilemmas of intimacy, drugs, sex, consent, elitism, public schools in modern Britain and their changing demographics, the gap forming with pre-internet generations and inter-racial anger.
I remember the first time I read Sartre's Intimacy. This book reminded me very much of it, but better, because it is so connected to modern life, and addresses more issues than intimacy.
Narration was excellent too.
Mariel, please write on! I cannot wait, you're brilliant.
