Mad About You

★★★★ MHAIRI MCFARLANE (HARPER COLLINS, £7.99)

Wedding photographer Harriet doesn’t believe in marriage. So, when her boyfriend proposes, it’s pretty awkward, and they split up. Harriet moves out and ends up sharing with Cal, a hopeless romantic who becomes her rock when her deepest secrets come to light and her world implodes. Covering subjects like gas lighting and abusive relationships, this is not just a romcom, it’s a topical, thought-provoking read.
