From the bestselling author of Ghosts and Everything I Know About Love: a sharply funny, beautifully observed and exquisitely relatable story of heartbreak and friendship, and how to survive both.

Andy loves Jen. Jen loved Andy.

And he can't work out why she stopped.

Now he is. . .
1. Without a home
2. Waiting for his stand-up career to take off
3. Wondering why everyone else around him seems to have grown up while he wasn't looking

Set adrift on the sea of heartbreak at a time when everything he thought he knew about women, and flat-sharing, and his friendships has transformed beyond recognition, Andy clings to the idea of solving the puzzle of their broken relationship. Because if he can find the answer to that, then maybe Jen can find her way back to him.

Andy still has a lot to learn, not least his ex-girlfriend's side of the story.

Entertaining and Therapeutic

An interesting storyline written from teh male perspective of a breakup. The ending is also unexpected.

A nuanced and poignant modern love story

Funny and heart-wrenching all at once, a wonderful reflection of all of our love lives at some point in time. Wise and so brilliantly clever. If you haven’t listened yet I envy you as you can discover this story for the first time.

One of the best audible experiences I’ve had

Fabulously read and laugh out loud funny. Brilliant all around. Anyone who’s ever had their heart broken will love this and relate.

Couldn’t get through it

The narrator sounded like a whining man, lamenting a breakup the entire first half of the book before I decided to give up on it

Too much complaining, it’s boring.

I had a hard time finishing this one, except for the very last chapters, the whole book is a very simple story, nothing extraordinary, only complaining and whining. I expected a lot from it, I honestly don’t understand why it’s so highly rated.
