So, I Met This Guy is a fun and engaging story about the power of friendship and the joy in finding yourself.
I was pulled into the story right from the hilarious prologue and I was eager to see what led to this cat and mouse chase.
- Age-gap friendship between women
- Romance fraud
- Homelessness
- Letting go of anger and moving on
- Living life on your terms
- Gas-lighting
- Women supporting women
- Fabulous armchair travel (Monte Carlo, Rome, Amalfi Coast, Sicily, Mallorca, Ibiza, Valencia, Malaga, Tangier)
- Hilarious misadventure
- Taking control
- Learning to stand up for yourself
- A whirlwind trip of revenge
I was barracking for Maggie, who was cheated out of everything she owned by a romance fraudster. The friendship between Maggie aged 50 and Flick, a journalist, aged 26 was very sweet, like mother and daughter, both helping each other to see the light.
If you are after a light read that is loads of fun I recommend So, I Met This Guy.
Perfect for readers of Sophie Kinsella, Marian Keyes and Paige Toon.
