No Such Thing As Perfect- Emma Hughes- Romcom

Laura has just moved in with her sister and her husband as her flatmates found

somewhere else to live without her. To add insult to injury at work redundancies

are being made. Laura works as a journalist producing a newspaper magazine.

She sees an email come in which just might be that something different,

having had her assessment interview she has 3 months to prove her worth to

the company. The email in question is for a new type of dating app- one

which looks at online browsing. They want to try it out on Laura and see if

they can make a match. She has to date the person for 3 months and see

how it goes. Laura gets matched with Adam and there is certainty an

instant attraction however cupid maybe has other ideas. I quite enjoyed

this- it’s a look at life and love and everything in between through the

eyes of a young singleton. Those of us a little older remember it all too

well, albeit in a maybe non-technological world. An enjoyable, easy

escapist read. The concept of Cupid reminded  me a little of

“ The One” but in a very different way- I won’t say more as no

spoilers. Of life and love and a whole lot more.
