A fantastic read, again Sarah is a master at writing about the toughest of topics. Will be highly recommending this all over social media and in the library. Roll on next year!

Well, if anyone was going to make me read about a sex doll, it would be Sarah Crossan!
Delores discovers her husband has a sex doll and confronts him about it, but doesn't let him keep it. Over time, she becomes accustomed to having "Zoey" around, and it stops Delores from being so lonely. There are many parallels with the sex doll to Delores life, and this is drip fed throughout the book.
Told in alternating short paragraphs, the book gives us insight into Delores' life now and also her childhood.
I can't say I really enjoyed reading this one, but it did keep my interest, and I wanted to know the outcome.

This is such an interesting premise - Dolores’ discovers her husbands AI companion doll, her husband leaves while she keeps the doll, over time she starts talking to Zoey (the doll) and learns some truths about herself & her past, using Zoey as a friend and confidant. This books was funny, sad and made me quite introspective of myself. I cannot recommend enough.

A very sad book exploring a woman's life, her relationships and her past. Information trickles out little by little but using a sex doll as confidant is a strange premise. It's well written, as are all Sarah Crossan's books and it's very thought provoking but it's an uncomfortable read.

What a premise! Sarah Crossan has produced another absolute belter. I felt heart sorry for Dolores. 'Hey Zoey' is an inventive and interesting read. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I loved the style of writing, the way Sarah Crossan reveals things to us gradually, and the fact that she uses a sex doll (of all things!) to explore universal themes in a way that feels delicate and considered. Brilliant piece of work!
