About this ebook

‘Feel-good, fast-paced and fabulous fun!’ Sunday Times bestseller Cathy Bramley

‘Full of sparkle, charm and properly laugh-out-loud moments! Alex Brown, bestselling author of A Postcard from Italy

The laugh-out-loud romcom of the year! Perfect for fans of Mhairi McFarlane, Beth O’Leary and Jasmine Guillory.

Young lawyer Alexa Humphries’s one true love is her precious duvet, yet she is torn from its comforting embrace every morning while the foxes are still scavenging the bins outside and doesn’t get back until long after most normal people are already asleep. Worn down by the endless demands of her suspicious boss and her competitive, high-flying housemate and fellow lawyer, Zara, Alexa barely recognises herself anymore. This wasn’t how life was supposed to be.

But today is different. Today, Alexa just cannot get out of bed to face the world. Everyone deserves a duvet day, don’t they?

Emily’s novel Take a Chance on Greece won the Romantic Comedy award at the Romantic Novelists’ Association awards 2023

Alexa is overworked and exhausted. As a young lawyer trying to crawl up the ladder in her firm, she has zero time for anything outside of work. One day she just can't do it anymore and takes a sick day. Her roommate Zara also works at her firm and spies on Alexa in hopes to get ahead. Because of this, Alexa has to be very careful and truly pretend to be sick when her roommate gets home. Due to a series of unfortunate events, Alexa is locked outside in a unicorn onesie and desperately needs to get back in before her roommate is home. I tried. I did. But unfortunately I ended up skimming the last 20% of the book. The things she gets involved in are sometimes so cringy I couldn't get into it. Some are also so unbelievable it makes the story that much harder to get into. I realize its really hard.to write a whole book based off of one day, but this one seemed.never ending. The internal dialogue was sometjmes pages and pages long and by the time she got done speaking to herself I'd forget what she was doing and have to flip back. And Sam. I understand Alexa was a bit annoying at times, but he was just an unnecessary a-hole and the fact she just happily started to fall in love and want to date him at the end forgetting his earlier behavior blew my mind. You have to look at how a person treats the worst person in their life because if you end up breaking up he'll probably treat you the same. ⭐⭐ There were decent parts throughout and I understand what the author was trying to do but it went on far too long and the cringe and outrageousness was a bit too much for me. Thank you to NetGalley, Emily Kerr, and One More Chapter for an ARC in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.
