"A gorgeous, charming novel.Sweet, moving, funny and hopeful, with a courageous heroine who sweeps you up in her story. "I laughed, I cried, and I bowed down to the brilliant author of this brilliant book." - Gillian McAllister, New York Times bestselling author of Wrong Place Wrong Time Executed with care, humor, and grace, this novel pokes at the bubble of solitude to show each of us that suffering has a sense of community and with that, the prospect of optimism." - Library Journal "In a world contending with the mental health fallout from COVID, Meredith is immediately relatable. She moved to London in 1995 and stumbled through many different jobs until she studied childrens illustration at Putney School of Art. An optimistic, feel-good novel that might just soothe some post-Covid angst." - Kirkus Reviews "Alexander creates a winning heroine in Meredith and likable characters in her kind friends this type of mental illness is not frequently highlighted or discussed, and while Meredith's experience predates the pandemic, there are, of course, echoes of sympathy for those who were isolated at home or who continue to be anxious about leaving their homes for this uncertain world. The result is a quiet slice-of-life story with heart to spare." - Publishers Weekly "atisfying.The measured pace keeps the plot moving even as most of the action takes place within Meredith's flat, and the endearing characters offer a sensitive portrayal of what it means to live with mental health issues. 'I laughed, I cried, and I bowed down to the brilliant author of this brilliant book.'.
