  • The Midnight Library

  • Lessons in Chemistry

Perfect for you if...

  • You loved Lessons in Chemistry or The Midnight Library and want a story about reinvention and unfinished business.
  • You're drawn to character-driven narratives about older women getting their lives back, not fading away.
  • You enjoy dual timelines and the satisfaction of secrets unraveling, especially those involving romance and regret.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer fast-paced plots with high stakes. This is a gentle, reflective book about two women finding their footing.
  • You're looking for explicit romance or tension. The love story here is bittersweet memory, not combustible chemistry.
  • You find cosy fiction too saccharine. This one leans into warmth and emotional catharsis rather than irony or edge.

About this book

Joan believes her life's story has ended. Living alone on a leafy Notting Hill street, she carries memories of a man she left behind in New York years ago. Seeking companionship, she advertises for a lodger. Jess is looking for a fresh start after her boyfriend left her without savings, and she's been staying on her best friend's couch. When she responds to Joan's advertisement, she doesn't anticipate how much her life will change. The two form an unexpected connection, and Jess proposes a bargain: Joan will go online if Jess goes offline. When Jess discovers Joan's collection of mementos from her lost love, she becomes determined to uncover the story behind them. In pursuing Joan's past, Jess finds her own path forward. The novel explores themes of long-lost love, unexpected friendship, and the possibility of new beginnings and second chances.
