T
he razor-sharp new novel from the million-copy Sunday Times bestselling author of Queen Bee and Faking Friends.

Best friends tell each other everything.

Or do they?


Georgia and Lydia are so close they're practically sisters.

So when Lydia starts an online business that struggles, Georgia wants to help her - but she also understands Lydia's not the kind to accept a handout.

Setting up a fake Twitter account, Georgia hopes to give her friend some anonymous moral support by posing as a potential customer.

But then Lydia starts confiding in her new internet buddy and Georgia discovers she doesn't know her quite as well as she thought.

Georgia knows she should reveal herself, but she's fascinated by this insight into her friend's true feelings.

Especially when Lydia starts talking about her.

Until Lydia reveals a secret that could not only end their friendship but also blow up Georgia's marriage.

Georgia's in too deep.

But what can she save?

Her marriage, her friendship - or just herself?

I loved Worst Idea Ever. Another Fallonesque treat, possibly my favourite so far. Full of heart, humour and humanity. Great characters and a riveting story from the start. She's so good at tapping into the best and the worst in us. Fabulous (Ruth Jones)
Worst Idea Ever is SO GOOD! I read it in one mad gulp (Marian Keyes)
We adore Jane Fallon's novels, and this witty page-turner could be her best yet
Brilliant, gripping . . . Emotionally intelligent and beautifully written
We love everything Jane Fallon writes and this might be her best yet!
Fallon's trademark warmth and humour is very much to the fore with this tale of friendship gone badly wrong
Takes us on a deep dive into the emotionally murky waters which exist between protagonists Lydia and Georgia . . . I adored it
Ingenious. Her eye for detail, compressed emotion and the absurdity that lurks beneath what people say to each other, is unerring. Worst. Idea. Ever. strengthens her claim to be one of our very finest comic novelists
Funny, insightful, sharp, wicked, brilliant - Jane Fallon at her very best (Milly Johnson)
Jane's talent lies in understanding human behaviour . . . Another winner. You won't regret it

I reviewed this book in two parts as I didn't want to forget the first part by the time I got to the end. I like Jane Fallon but this book felt rushed/incomplete

*Spoiler alert*

The book takes the usual JF structure. Part 1 was a bit long winded. The Patricia, Lydia and Georgie trio was a great plot when it started. From page 1 of the book it was off to a great start, I was hooked but 20 chapters in was hoping part 2 picked up. Or rather was not going to be as predictable as I was suspecting

Part 2 was better than the first part and the story line moved quicker.

Am just really sad I didn't like this book as much as her last books. This felt like a mesh of a previous book (getting rid of Matthew ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐) and queen B but the JF twist just never came.
For starters, Patricia/ Georgia's slip up was obvious when it happened and the reveal was a bit messy. (Lydia said she realised from reading and copying each others work which was different to Georgie)

In the end I concluded the catfishing may have been the twist. I was hoping the other couple were going to add some depth but their parallel storyline was equally as predictable.

Lydia's character was also just all over the place. First she was annoyed with Georgia, then that just happened to coincide with her feelings for Nick which then propelked her to do what she did.

To conclude on a positive, it's an easy listen and the ending, though predictable is good.

Not my fav Jane Fallon book

As always super interesting characters who feel real. But the story kinda fell off the end.

Interesting characters.

I have read and listened to a lot of Jane Fallon books and this one was absolutely superb, on a par with Queen Bee in my opinion. I got through this one in a couple of days. 10/10!

One of the best Jane Fallon books

This was my first audible book and I enjoyed the experience of being read to. However.. I found the storyline of The Worst Idea Ever a little predictable and bland. The characters were believable and relatable but I was waiting for more drama or a bigger climax. The narration was OK, the second narrator was a little monotone and I found her difficult to concentrate on. Not bad, not good overall but a little underwhelmed.

Ok
