UNPUTDOWNABLE TO THE MAX!!!

A perfect breath of fresh air. The comedy in this is laugh-out-loud, deep within your chest until you pee your pants and I am so here for it!!

Asking for a friend is a MUST READ and I mean it more now than I ever have about another book. 5 stars does not do it justice! It deserves ALL the stars!!!



Thank you netgalley for the incredible read!!!

Asking for a friend made me laugh at loud and also moved me to tears. I loved reading this story of female friendship. There are so many reasons why I loved this book but most importantly it was so good to read a story about three Black British Women living, loving and going through those familiar ups and downs of life and not through the pigeon holed prism of cliche's and stereotypes about the Black experience. I loved the experience of just sitting back and reading a very funny and uplifting book about three women who look like me and my friends.

This was just the book I needed to grab my attention and keep me laughing through a tough week. 
This beautiful group of friends sit down together after their own personal disappointments and mastermind a challenge that each friend will set up one of the others with a date, there's rules and there's commitment. The consequences of each date and the true motives of the friends brings a hilarious, emotional and revealing plot that threatens to change the group forever. 
Andi Osho's writing has the epic timing and laugh out loud comedy moments that you'd expect from such a revered comedienne and it also has heart and a vulnerability that I found compelling in equal measure.
I truly loved how this book explores female friendships, and gave a very genuine, considered prose of how friends tease, argue, champion and talk straight to each other. It looks not only at the ways our past hurts and childhood traumas affect our decision making abilities and behaviour patterns in romances, but also within friendships and professional relationships also. There's quite a lot of psychological analysis and an unwrapping of the layers of each friends' personalities that was interesting to read and also to reflect on. This ultimately is a book about friendship and sorting out your life choices and was thoroughly an entertaining read!

I breezed through this book as I found myself falling in love with it quickly and deeply. The central trio - Jemima, Meagan and Simi - are such wonderful characters. They are tenderly constructed and what they go through is so believably written. This is unabashedly and unashamedly a novel about love and romance - but not just the romantic side. Love of self and friendships are both examined in a way few novels dare to. This is going to stick with me for a long while - can't wait to recommend to my friends once it comes out!

A tight knit bunch of friends and the trials and tribulations of modern dating. Fantastic. I loved the characters and their interactions were believable and endearing. This is the sort of book I would read on holiday.

Asking for a friend, wow what a book! Yessss!! I loved it. I was so happy with it from start to finish. Okay did it have that omg i can’t put this book down feel? No not really, but did it warm my heart? Yessss. I felt emotional, grateful for what I had and for a book to do that it has to be powerful. I loved all the characters in this, except Miles but never mind him. I really love this story, I think it’s going to do so well and I’m now going to check out other books by this author.  I love how it wasn’t just about love but about friendship and about careers and about happiness. I honestly wish I could give this 6/5 stars. 

Thank you NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read this ARC.

Thank you to HQ and Netgalley for an early copy of this book in return for an honest review. 

I enjoyed this book, although I needed a good number of chapters before I got into the book and into the heads of our main characters.

It's the story of 3 ladies who consider themselves to be unlucky in love and their game of asking out men for their friends. 

An enjoyable read that I would recommend to others looking for a holiday beach read.

Loved loved loved it! A wonderful book starring three female best friends with differing outlooks from life and different wishes; the story follows them through their dating antics where they all decide to try and find a partner for one of the others rather than themselves. I loved seeing how they interacted, the confidence and insecurities in each one, some wonderful characters. You get the story from each of their perspectives in turn, finding out more about each of them and what has led them to this point.
Written in a relaxed easy to read way, which I really appreciated. And the chapters were just the right length to make you read more!
Thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for the chance to read it

What a delightful romantic comedy! This a story of a female friendship amidst the chaos of modern dating, and the way women can support one another in the process of finding true love. Highly recommended!
