Just Got Real: The gripping revenge comedy and Sunday Times bestseller 2023

Product Information

Once she and Ant are an item, however, it's soon clear that the only thing Ant was honest about was his profile picture.

Now 61, she cuts a tomboyish figure, dressed in a Marc Jacobs Peter Pan collar blouse, tucked into oversized Studio Nicholson boyfriend jeans; with her ashy-blonde hair scraped up into a top knot. The Queen of the revenge dramedy is back with a hilarious, fun and wicked romance that will tickle the funny bone and satisfy the soul. Jane Fallon is the multi-award winning television producer behind such shows as This Life, Teachers and 20 Things to do Before You're 30.She is author of ten novels on the Sunday Times Bestseller List — Getting Rid of Matthew, Got You Back, Foursome, The Ugly Sister, Skeletons, Strictly Between Us, My Sweet Revenge, Faking Friends, Tell Me A Secret, and Queen Bee. I mean Twitter is a cesspool, but I do see people on Twitter making quite an intelligent point and then you look at their Instagram page and they are just…” (She mimes someone puckering up to take a selfie with giant pouty fish lips.

She doesn’t really want to talk about Gervais and given the hornets’ nest he’s recently kicked over with his outspoken routine on trans women in his latest Netflix special show, Super Nature, it’s not surprising. Fallon says a Manhattan transfer has vaguely been on the cards in recent years, but if anything, she suggests they are now more likely to stray further into the English countryside. I mean every single season of Curb Your Enthusiasm has been better than the last, so I would say Larry David.

I whipped through Just Got Real by Jane Fallon in a single sunlounger session and howled with laughter . She can't confess her lie, but comes up with a plan to 'meet' Ant in real life without revealing their online connection. I throughly enjoyed this book, a total easy read which I would look forward to ‘tucking into’ before bed every night.

For those who don’t remember This Life, which first aired in 1996, think of it as Friends’s darker, sexier, grittier London twin. Three middle-aged women try online dating and are conned by a guy who is dating all of them at the same time. Full of charm, excitement and the humour splashed throughout adds this certain charisma that makes it so relatable.It was great to read a story about romance and friendship in women who were not in their 20s for a change.
