Summary

‘If Jane Austen and Kevin Kwan had a love child, it might well be Lucie Yi Is Not A Romantic’ JODI PICOULT ‘Funny as heck but also real and relatable, Lucie Yi Is Not A Romantic redefines the romcom’ RED

Lucie Yi has tried love – it didn’t work.

She’s decided that finding Mr Right is a myth, and that finding Mr Right-enough-to-have-children-with is the next best option. So when she meets easy-going Collin Read on a platonic co-parenting website, it finally feels like she has found her version of happily ever after.

But things take a turn for the worse when they move back home to Singapore where her very traditional family and remorseful ex-fiancé await.

With pressure mounting on all sides and her perfect plan unravelling, Lucie has to decide how much she’s willing to sacrifice for a chance at happiness – and maybe, just maybe, love.

Critic reviews

‘If Jane Austen and Kevin Kwan had a love child, it might well be LUCIE YI IS NOT A ROMANTIC. Lauren Ho’s most recent novel sits delightfully at the juncture of modern fertility, modern women, and modern romance’ JODI PICOULT

‘LUCIE YI IS NOT A ROMANTIC kept me gripped from the very first page. It's full of humour and heart’ BETH O’LEARY

‘Lucie Yi is not a romantic but she is funny, clever and utterly compelling. A razor sharp story of family, friendship and love in all its many forms, I devoured Lucie Yi in a single sitting. Lauren Ho's writing is so witty and relatable, I would read her shopping list if she published it’ LINDSEY KELK

‘Smart, funny, heartfelt and definitely romantic – I loved it!’ SARAH MORGAN

‘Fresh, funny and thought-provoking – Lucie Yi is a romantic heroine for the 21st century’ SOPHIE COUSENS

‘Fresh, funny and moving, you’ll be hooked’ Heat

‘A gloriously entertaining and completely addictive read. Warm, sharply-observed and wickedly funny’ NICOLA GILL

‘A beautiful exploration of both grief and romance starring a lovably hilarious heroine’ Kirkus Reviews

‘With her signature warmth and wit, Lauren Ho explores the trials of elective parenting, pregnancy, dating and family conflicts. Lucie Yi is certainly not a romantic, but she navigates her relationships and friendships with love, generosity and vulnerability. This is a hilarious and honest novel about a woman living on her own terms’ BALLI KAUR JASWAL, author of Erotic Stories for Punjabi Widows

‘a story of love and friendship, humour and sadness, and, above all, of being true to yourself’ My Weekly

‘Prepare yourselves for a heroine who is laugh-out-loud funny and incredibly savvy. Lauren Ho is an auto-buy author for me!’ JESSE SUTANTO, author of Dial A for Aunties

A story which goes nowhere

If you're into something to get you to sleep at nights or where it doesn't really matter if you've forgotten parts, then this is the book for you. A sort of pleasant meandering dialogue. And a whole book where nothing really happens at all. Clearly the author has been through a similar experience (of wanting to get pregnant without a partner) and was in need of self therapy by writing it all down.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
