The writing was funny. I had a smile on my face for most of the story. Ros longs for the good old days at the expense of the present. Her ex boyfriend is such a jackwagon! Everyone knows it but Ros, but it’s nice to see her grow and start seeing the things that are right in front of her. I would say this had a slightly slow start, and Ros just seems to be in a depressing situation. Hang in there! I promise, it gets way wonderful. The banter aloneq, between the 4 best friends, is worth the read. Highly recommended.
Ros returns to London after 3 years away in the US. She has a solid friend group, and in my opinion they’re what makes this novel great. Lucy is the soft touch. Adrian, the token male friend, is not stereotypically gay. Sumi, the kick arse tough lesbian friend is also very feminine. It was nice to see characters who were fresh and original. There’s an earnest bartender in the mix whom Ros initially dislikes.
Lindsey Kelk’s writing in In Case you Missed it reminded me a lot of Mhairi McFarlane. This is definitely chick-lit, but with a bit of romance. A happy rom-com.
Content: Some swearing (including clever Brit swearing), f-bombs, and mild sexual content; probably around PG-13.
I received this book for free in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own, no outside influence.
