#BookonTour Just Saying By Sophie Ranald #Bookouture #NetGalley


I almost gave up on love. My ex, who called his private parts ‘Nigel’, was enough to put me off men forever. But then I met Joe.

Alice thought she’d found Mr Right. Her blue-eyed boyfriend Joe gives her butterflies, makes her bacon sandwiches when she’s hungover, and doesn’t have a nickname for any of his body parts.

She should have known it was too good to be true. Because one day, Alice and Joe bump into Zoe. According to him, Zoe’s ‘just an old friend’. But Alice saw the way they froze, and heard the strange note in Joe’s voice when he said her name.

Then, out of the blue, Zoe needs a place to live. And Joe has the bright idea of inviting her, and her fluffy ginger cat Frazzle, to stay with them.

Alice tries her hardest not to feel threatened. But the thing is, Zoe doesn’t survive off microwave meals, or go days without washing her glossy copper-coloured hair, or accidentally get mascara in her contact lenses.

Joe’s ex might be pretty much perfect, but there’s no way that Alice will let Zoe steal him. She’s on a mission to prove that three (four, if you count the cat) is definitely a crowd…

This fabulous, feel-good page-turner is for anyone who has ever got a little too drunk and checked out their partner’s ex! (We’ve all been there…) Fans of romantic comedies by Sophie Kinsella and Lindsey Kelk, and TV shows like Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and Jane the Virgin, will love this utterly relatable read.

As an editor for a customer publishing agency, Sophie developed her fiction-writing skills describing holidays to places she'd never visited. In 2011, she decided to disregard all the good advice given to aspiring novelists and attempt to write full-time. After one false start, It Would Be Wrong to Steal My Sister's Boyfriend (Wouldn't It?) seemed to write itself. Her second, third and fourth novels followed. Sophie also writes for magazines and online about food, fashion, finance and running. She lives in south-east London with her amazing partner Hopi and Purrs, their adorable little cat.

Heidi Lynn’s Book Reviews 

First, I want to thank Sophie Ranald, Bookouture and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I can bring you this review.

Just Saying you need to read this amazing comical book by Sophie Ranald! She had me cracking up laughing so many times during this book! It is such a fun read!

Gotta love the cover and how it looks cartoonish! Kudos to the graphic designer on this one.

There was a part of the story that I was shocked that she went there with. Nobody in my history of reading tackled the comical yet TMI scene! Way to think outside of the box!! I was shaking my head the whole scene! 

I loved learning about the backstory of Joe and Alice’s relationship and how it evolved to today! It was such a beautiful story. 

Say Anything tackled a difficult subject sexual abuse by someone in authority. 

Sophie started writing this novel when the first news of the Covid pandemic hit. She talks about her experience dealing with this new world. Not to mention how humbled she is to have been contacted by readers about how much her books kept them entertained. She thanks you for reading.
