About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

No one's life is as perfect as it looks. Least of all Laura Morrison's. (Although she's not sure how perfect hanging onto your job by a thread and sleeping on an air mattress at your sister's looks, in all honesty.)

When Laura gets the chance to trial Cupid - a high-tech new dating service which will draw on everything she's ever done online to find her perfect match - she figures it's got to be worth a try.

She can't believe her luck when good-looking, kind considerate Adam turns up for their first date. On paper he's...well...perfect.

But when Laura develops feelings for the person who led her to Adam in the first place, familiar doubt creeps in.

Maybe for life to start falling into place, Laura has to learn to let go....

Sharply observed and laugh-out-loud funny, No Such Thing as Perfect is the perfect novel for anyone who has ever wondered if there's a formula for finding love.

Critic reviews

"I lost count of the number of times I laughed out loud, I was rooting for Laura from the first page. Tender, funny, smart and brilliantly observed. The perfect blend of uplifting escapism and social satire, an utter page turner and such a clever, perceptive moving one. I LOVED it!" (Daisy Buchanan)

"Brimming with wit and razor sharp observations." (Sophie Cousens, author of This Time Next Year)

"A fresh, funny, sexy tale of dating woes, family expectations, technological adventure, and loyal friendships, this book will make your world a brighter place." (Katherine Heiny)

I think this book just wasn't for me. The story was plesant but was quite hard to follow and the ended was a little rushed to my liking.
