How To Fall Out of Love Madly

Meer over het boek

Three relatable thirty-somethings drive this ode to womanhood, learning to love themselves and teaching invaluable lessons along the way. Joy and Annie, friends and roommates, grapple with the compromises they've made for the men they love. To make ends meet, they rent their extra bedroom to Theo, who captivates Joy with his charm and affection for their one-eyed cat. When Annie moves in with her boyfriend, Joy and Theo settle into a comfortable routine. However, everything changes when Theo introduces Celine, his stunning girlfriend, igniting Joy’s obsession and plunging her into an emotional turmoil. Unbeknownst to Joy, Celine, haunted by her past, is trapped in a cycle of self-sabotage. Meanwhile, Annie struggles to understand Joy's devotion while grappling with her own insecurities, obsessively decoding her commitment-phobic boyfriend's texts in a bid for his approval. At work, Annie shines with her assertiveness, but when an anonymous letter accuses her boss of misconduct, she faces a moral dilemma about whom to support. Perceptive and funny, this narrative explores women's relationships—with each other, their mothers, their work, men, and themselves—revealing the complexities of their power and the reasons behind their tolerance of unacceptable behavior. It challenges them to reclaim control over their lives.
