'Funny, hopeful and agonisingly relatable, Esther is all of us. Lucy Vine writes with such compelling honesty, Seven Exes made me laugh, made me cry and made me want to call all my friends to tell them I loved them then call my exes to apologize/punch them in the nuts. Equal parts romcom and life lesson, it's a must-read'

'SEVEN EXES was such a joy to read. I adore everything Lucy writes but I think this is her best one yet'

'Hilarious and heart-warming, SEVEN EXES is unputdownable and deeply relatable. I gobbled it up!
