Three women in Los Angeles — Ruby, a TV presenter terrified of ageing; Gillian, who has retreated from the world after a loss; and Beth, navigating new motherhood and an unreliable partner — collide in funny, chaotic, and often very relatable ways. O’Porter writes with warmth and genuine comic instinct, and the novel moves at a clip.

Unashamedly fun. A very funny, easy read that earns its laughs.
