Summary

You always remember your first love. Don’t you…?

’Hilarious, warm and life affirming’ Jenny Colgan

It began with four words.

‘I love your laugh. x’

But that was twelve years ago. It really began the day Georgina was fired from The Worst Restaurant in Sheffield (© Tripadvisor) and found The Worst Boyfriend in the World (© Georgina’s best friends) in bed with someone else.

So when her new boss, Lucas McCarthy, turns out to be the boy who wrote those words to her all that time ago, it feels like the start of something.

The only problem? He doesn’t seem to remember Georgina – at all…

This irresistible new book from Mhairi McFarlane is the perfect story to escape with. Compulsively readable, absolutely hilarious and deliciously romantic, you will not be able to put it down.

I only ever have one predicament when it comes to Mhairi McFarlane's books; I inhale them!!
A rom-com story that deals with real issues, as well as second chance romance.
In Mhairi I have found an author who genuinely makes me laugh. No forced giggles, but ill-timed snorting on public transport, but she also has the ability to make me ugly cry!
The only thing I would have liked to have seen in this book was the point of view of Lucas.
Don't You Forget About Me,  had me from the first page and has made an entry onto my favourite books of the year list. I can’t wait to read more from Mhairi McFarlane!
4/5

Hilarious, Clever & Beautifully Written

I found it hard to put this book down, so I added the narration so I could flick between the two. A lovely tale about young teenage love then the school prom changes everything. They both think incorrectly about the reason for the split. Fast forward 12 years and Georgina recently sacked ends up working in a bar just to help out. She handles the job well that the boss offers her a job, the only snag is he wants to pass it by his brother the other half of the partnership. Georgina instantly recognises who he is but he acts as if he has never met her. Does he really not recognise her? Or not!!! There are lots of laugh out laugh moments too and addictive reading for me.
