Probably Nothing

An irresistibly warm, witty and hilarious novel about one woman’s pursuit of happiness—and the cost of her comfort over her fulfillment. Perfect for readers of Good Material by Dolly Alderton and The Rachel Incident by Caroline O’Donoghue.

Life is short . . . but does that mean you should settle for one that’s just “perfectly fine”?

Bryony doesn’t actually mind being single. So she doesn’t understand why she keeps seeing (okay, sleeping with) Ed, who is perfectly fine, but also only okay. After developing the ick on their fifth date, she resolves to end things—only to receive a call the next day telling her Ed has died.

Worse yet, he seems to have represented her to his family and friends as the love of his life. Obviously, it would be cruel to correct them. But then she’s invited to the funeral. It would be equally rude to refuse . . . right?

Before she knows it, Bryony has been drawn in by the charisma and chaos of Ed’s eccentric family and tangled in a web of her own lies. She’s been guilted into signing up for his sister’s pyramid scheme, she’s in far too deep with several of his nearest and dearest—and to make matters worse she’s experiencing a lot of physical symptoms that are becoming increasingly difficult to continue ignoring . . .
