Really Good, Actually, by Monica Heisey - a spoiler-free review

Genre: Fiction, Contemporary, Chick Lit, Humor

First Published: 2023

Length: 384 pages

Setting: Canada

I really enjoyed this book - I’ve seen some people say it’s like a chick-lit version of Sorrow & Bliss and there are many similarities. It’s about a newly divorced woman in her late twenties who is trying to navigate life whilst single and living alone for the first time in years. It is actually very funny and so cringey, she ends up making some not very good decisions and you might be rolling your eyes at the things she does, she is really quite narcissistic at times. The story is about her messy search for joy and trying to truly embrace her life.
