Nick Hornby
“It is very, very funny and it is Nick Hornby at his best.” — Roddy Doyle, Booker Prize winning author of Paddy Clarke Ha Ha Ha
“A joy from start to finish.” — Kate Atkinson, bestselling author of Life after Life
'So clever and funny [about] what it means to be a fan... I loved it.” — Ben Markovits, Booker Prize finalist author of The Rest of Our Lives
Sophie is not a soccer fan, but she has always humored her uncle Keith when he goes on about his favorite (losing) Premier League team. So when Keith places a longshot bet on that team, Leicester City, to win the championship, he places one in Sophie’s name too. The odds are five thousand to one.
But then the odds in Sophie's life start to improve in every way. The team starts winning, their wins become a streak, and suddenly the bookies are offering Sophie good money to cash out. Maybe she can finally pull herself and her slacker boyfriend out of the financial holes he keeps digging. In fact, maybe she no longer has to settle for the slacker boyfriend at all.
Soon, Sophie finds herself swept up in the exhilarating world of sport, replete with unexpected connections, spontaneity, and camaraderie. There’s a new man on the horizon. A potential windfall is in reach. Sophie must decide whether to play it safe and cash out, or to risk it all—in soccer, and in life.
A novel for soccer lovers and non–sports fans alike, Cash Out is Nick Hornby on a breakaway: bombastic, irrepressible, and resonant. A return to form from our most indelible chronicler of life’s inflection points, this novel will sweep you off your feet and onto the pitch.

Praise for Cash Out
''We're having the time of our lives' is the refrain running through CASH OUT, and I had the time of mine reading it. A love letter to football, and a love story - it is very, very funny and it is Nick Hornby at his best.” —Roddy Doyle, author of Paddy Clarke Ha Ha Ha, winner of the Booker Prize
“A joy from start to finish.” —Kate Atkinson, author of Life after Life
'So clever and funny, and such a brilliant conceit for building a plot around what it means to be a fan... I loved it.” —Ben Markovits, Booker prize finalist author of The Rest of Our Lives
"A book not just for relatives of football fans who wonder why the stupid game is so important but for those who understand already. Read it and you'll find yourself invested either way. Nick Hornby's charismatic, funny, wise, and deeply entertaining novel has the effervescence of prime Kanté and the pace of Vardy on the counter." —Benjamin Wood, author of Seascraper, longlisted for the Booker Prize
“Nick Hornby returns to the subject that made us all fall in love with his writing and Cash Out’s riveting premise will appeal to everyone, whether they love football or not. Final score: Entertainment - 7. Boredom – 0.” —John O’Farrell, author of May Contain Nuts
“Cash Out will delight those indifferent to football, those obsessed, and everyone in between. A story with tension, dilemma, money, sex, an underdog, and a disloyal sister. I have never been less bored reading a book in my life. I LOVED it.” —Nina Stibbe, author of Love Nina
