So Happy For You

From Shelf: These are the books @Queerly_Books discussed on their podcast - we made them a shelf!

Bridesmaids meets Black Mirror in the most twisted and entertaining thriller of 2022.

'A firecracker of a book' Micah Nemerever, author of These Violent Delights

'Ridiculously addictive to read. Wildly creative and wickedly funny' Laurie Elizabeth Flynn, author of The Girls Are All So Nice Here

Robin and Ellie have been best friends since childhood. They've been through everything together, from Robin coming out to the death of Ellie's dad. But when Ellie asks Robin to be her maid of honour, Robin is reluctant.

It's not that Robin isn't happy for Ellie, she just hates everything about weddings and marriage - plus the guy Ellie's engaged to. There's also the matter of the crazy (not to mention dangerous) wedding rituals that couples are resorting to in the hope of securing a lifetime of happiness.

Despite her misgivings, Robin finally says yes. But as the wedding day approaches, she gets the feeling that everyone in the bridal party is out to get her. And it seems Ellie is willing to do anything for the perfect day. After all, marriage is about sacrifice...

Readers are saying 'I do' to So Happy For You!

'I was utterly ADDICTED to this book! Honestly one of the craziest and most unique books I've read in a long time, like straight out of a Black Mirror episode!'

'A wild ride of party buses, queer identity politics and attempted murder that actually says a lot about the intense, sensual and sometimes BS-crazy world of female friendship'

'Had me completely gripped from the start . . . I could never predict what was going to happen next'

Well written with a dark and compelling plot and well developed characters all wrapped up in a chilly envelope . . . I couldn't put it down'
