Tell Me Everything by Laura Kay

Star rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐

Publisher: Quercus

Publication date: 26th May 2022

Blurb:

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.

Review:

I absolutely loved The Split by Laura Kay so I was eager to get my hands on a copy of Kay's next novel - Tell Me Everything.

I want to say that Laura Kay is the queen of the lesbian romcom but the books are so much more than that.

Our main character Natasha is a therapist and continues to live with her ex-girlfriend Georgia until Georgia wants to move her new girlfriend Zara in. Natasha, although she is a therapist, doesn't seem to be able to suss herself out. She is meeting up with people she has connections with on dating sites, nothing meaningful and the book focuses on her reflecting on herself.

Kay writes very well when it comes to relationships, not just romantic but between Natasha and her mother, sister, friends too. There is fantastic representation in this book with the introduction of a non-binary character too and the humour and wit is just perfect.

A really strong follow up to The Split.
