(Not Quite) Done With Dating by Bella Osborne #Review

I am delighted to welcome another romcom by Bella Osborne. (Not Quite) Done With Dating was published on January 29th by Penguin.  

 One bad date too many calls for desperate measures . . . 

 
Nora is well and truly fed up. After more painfully bad dates than she can count, she’s had enough of leaving it to fate to find her perfect match – but she's not quite ready to give up on her love life just yet.

As a statistician, Nora trusts numbers more than her gut, so when she finds a formula that could help her conquer the dating game, she has to give it a go.

Putting her love theory to the test takes Nora to some questionable places with some even more questionable men, but she won't be deterred – she knows that 'the one' must be out there, somewhere. Even if he's the last person she'd have expected. . .

My Thoughts

 This is a fun, light-hearted romcom, just right to escape into. Nora is slightly quirky with a belief in the power of statistics which she decides to apply to finding 'The One'. Backtracking through some of her previous boyfriends, she sets about trying to meet up so that she can see whether love has passed her by. It goes without saying that each meeting leads to plenty of humour and some lively characters.

    With a fast pace and such a variety of situations, you are invested along with Nora in her search. There is the hint of a slow burn romance running through the story and by the end, you are willing Nora to find what she is looking for. As with all of Bella Osborne's books, you will enjoy the quick dialogue and amusing situations.

 

In short: searching for love 

About the Author


Bella has been jotting down stories for as long as she can remember and her first novel hit the shelves in 2015.

In 2022, she was thrilled to win the RNA Romantic Comedy Novel of the Year Award. She secretly wants to keep her readers up late at night reading just one more chapter.

 Bella lives in Warwickshire, UK with her husband, daughter and rescue cat and her garden is home to many rehabilitated hedgehogs and one particularly cheeky squirrel. She loves planning with sticky notes, researching biscuits and listening to music in a bath that’s only slightly cooler than the sun
