Ghosts

Ghosts by Dolly Alderton, 303 pages

Nina has a successful career as a writer and she's finally living in an apartment she bought by herself in London, but as one of few single women in her friend group, she's seen as a sad lonely woman who must find a spouse to participate in all of the couple- and family-focused activities her friends now do. When she meets Max on a dating app, it seems like she's finally found someone who will help her move to that next stage of life. But just when things get serious, he ghosts her. This book is about the ways that Max and Nina's relationship changes her, and the way that his inexplicable sudden absence forces her to face the challenges of her relationships with her closest friends and parents. It's funny, it's full of heart, and it's pretty darn awesome. Highly recommended.
