A hilarious debut for all fans of Mhairi McFarlane and Lisa Owens. The perfect antidote for Valentine's Day!

Life is 10% planning, 10% design and 80% totally winging it...

Join Emma as she guides you through How Not to become accidentally knocked up at the age of 27, How Not to unceremoniously dump the father of your child, and then How Not to lose the job that (even though you hate it) is the only thing between you and being homeless...

Hilarious and heart-warming, How Not to Fall in Love, Actually will make you laugh, make you cry, and will reassure you that perhaps your life is not that bad, actually...

How to waste time, actually

I'm disappointed because I have enjoyed all Catherine Bennetto's books I've read, but this is a "blah" story about a not very likeable girl who has a tendency to treat people badly and behave like a petulant child. Some other reviews mention an unnecessary penchant for fat-shaming and it's absolutely true. The body-critical vitriol was overdone and honestly, unnecessary.
The way the story unfolded, reveals that the "bad guys" in the story (Ned, Sophie, the mother etc) are actually nice people and Emma is the actual asshole.
I enjoyed Rosie Jones performance though. I don't recommend spending money on this book.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
