LoveReading Says
Okay so full disclosure I have now become friends with Laura Kay, mainly because we kept getting paired up to do queer romcom events together – but I think if anything that doesn’t mean the recommendation is any less authentic, it in fact shows that her writing is so fun it made me want to hang out with her in real life!
I like books that feel like you’re talking to your friends, and that really comes through in Tell Me Everything – I want to be friends with every character in this novel (even if I wouldn’t want them to all necessarily be my therapist!) I wish they were sending ME funny and therapeutic voice notes in the early hours but, fortunately, reading this is the next best thing. Laura's writing is so warm and open-hearted, but also has a dry wit that makes you snort with delighted recognition. If you liked her debut The Split, you'll LOVE Tell Me Everything. (Also stay tuned for her third novel, Wild Things, about a group of friends buying a country house together, coming out in 2023!)

Tell Me Everything Synopsis
Would you entrust your life choices to someone hell-bent on avoiding theirs?
Natasha has everything under control, at least that's what her clients think. As a therapist, she has all the answers but when it comes to her personal life, she seriously needs to start taking her own advice.
Still living with her ex-girlfriend, Natasha's messy love life is made up of dates and one-night stands. After all, why would you commit to one person, when there is an endless stream of people waiting for you to swipe right? Besides, people always leave.
But when Margot arrives on the scene, everything changes. Flailing between mending long broken relationships and starting new ones, Natasha's walking the line between self-actualisation and self-destruction... With denial no longer an option, it is time for Natasha to take control of her own happiness.
