This book was really enjoyable; it was so relatable and funny! I found it easy to read and enjoyed the mix of characters and the build up of their friendships. Thoroughly enjoyed it; would definitely recommend

Just what I needed at this point in time! A funny, light hearted easy read. I’ll be honest and admit I was first attracted to it by the bright cover, but I wasn’t disappointed with the contents inside. Eve could easily be your best friend. Realistic and flawed, I loved her. Sure, she can be a bit silly, and some of the situations she finds herself in are a bit unrealistic, but it’s a light hearted book and I happily overlooked all that. Definitely had me laughing out loud quite a few times, made my husband wonder what I was reading. I liked the idea of the lists, as someone who makes lists myself for what I hope to achieve. All in all, a fun book, just what you need in these difficult times! Pick up this book, settle in and forget the worlds worries for a while.

Great book! Very funny and super well written! I would gladly read it again and maybe give it to a friend to take a look at.

Light hearted, a bit zany and chaotic and definitely fun.

Eve is a huge fan of to-do-lists, in fact you should see the big list she has made of things she wants to do while in her twenties. She has grown up with religious parents, and finds all talk about sex incredibly awkward. She has a boyfriend, Adam, who seems perfect on paper, and is in a new job where people don't know about her video on youtube that accidentally went a bit viral!

For me the best things that happen in this book are while Eve and her colleagues are filming a pilot for a few reality tv gameshow, that sounds as though it would be compelling viewing. The four couples that are taking part are so different that they almost sound like exaggerated caricatures. You have the upper class man who seems unaware of the cameras, the woman with incredibly yappy dogs, the fitness freak, the couple who have been heavily influenced by 50 Shades of Grey and are at it, every spare second they can find, and a few slightly more normal people.

This is in addition to a crew full of great people, one incredibly horrible cast member, an amusing TV presenter and one man that Eve is suddenly hyper aware of.

Despite all of this, there was something about Eve that I just wasn't keen on, I really didn't mesh that well with her, perhaps it was her haphazard approach to things, or just that she was young. Regardless I enjoyed the book overall, and there are plenty of moments to have you laughing your socks off!
