Lisa Jewell is the Sunday Times bestselling author of sixteen books, including her most recent novel, the Sunday Times bestseller Watching You. She lives in London with her husband and two children.
Fans of Jewel's first novel, Ralph's Party, are in for a treat with Thirty-Nothing. Best friends since school, Dig and Nadine have drifted into a comfortable and mutually dependent existence which barely leaves room for partners. However, when Dig's infamous ex, Delilah, suddenly resurfaces in their lives, a chain of events ensues, forcing the characters to delve into their pasts and face old heartaches, with surprising results. Yet another foray into the lives of trendy young Londoners, you may ask? Yes, but unlike many in this genre, Jewell's novel has a warmth and appeal which transcends the setting. Deeply romantic, this book will make you laugh outloud, and is liable to leave even the toughest of cynics with a warm fuzzy feeling. (Kirkus UK)
