Critics Review

• I’ve read – and loved – ALL of Jane Fallon’s books, but Just Got Real is her best yet! The plotting is as ingenious and entertaining as ever but this book has a lot of WARMTH and HEART. It’s especially gorgeous on female friendship

  MARIAN KEYES

• Y’know when you find a book that you cannot wait to get back to, that you sneak time on your own with or cancel arrangements in order to read? Well this is one of those books. Had me gripped and spellbound. I kept saying to myself ‘Just one more chapter’…and then a chapter later ‘Okay, just one more’… I found it impossible to put down. Jane Fallon is SO good at human behaviour and what makes us tick. Fabulous characters and a story that just will not let you go! Loved it.

  RUTH JONES

• This escapist gem is loud-snort funny

  HEAT

• Jane just keeps getting better and better. Her books are so smart, funny and warm. I really love her relatable characters, who appear fragile until they become warriors we cheer for

  ADELE PARKS

• Witty, smart, topical and full of heart…the sun-lounger smash of the summer

  TAMMY COHEN

• Sharply observed, wickedly funny, with real depths of emotion too. Absolutely unputdownable.

  MILLY JOHNSON

• Her snappy, clever fiction . . . seems to slip down like a glass of nicely chilled white wine. Just Got Real – her 12th book – makes no exception . . . Fallon has a nose for distilling the zeitgeist and we are in The Tinder Swindler territory here

  Sunday Telegraph

• ‘I loved it.
  Jane Fallon’s Just Got Real is one of those rare novels that brings both a tear to your eye and a chill to your heart.
  The set-up is glorious – a woman who joins a dating app with a fake photo meets a man whose photo is the only real thing about him.
  This is the great dating app novel, red in tooth and claw, full of secret lives and lies, the story of what we will do to find love – and how far we will go when that longing is cruelly betrayed.
  Just Got Real is a story of four vividly-drawn women and one horribly believable man, a novel about friendship and treachery that contains what must be the killer twist of the year. Totally brilliant.’

  TONY PARSONS

• Jane is the absolute master of twisty, contemporary storytelling

  JENNY COLGAN

• Your writing makes the world a brighter place, [Jane Fallon]. Just Got Real is an absolute joy

  JOANNA CANNON

• A deliciously compelling story of romance and revenge. Just Got Real is intelligent, funny, and sharply observed. Be prepared to read in one sitting!

  LUCY CLARKE

• ‘I finally finished this BELTER of a read from Jane Fallon…It is FABULOUS – with such warmth and humour, and the usual dose of the dish that is best served cold. Just Got Real is the perfect summer read.’

  CLAIRE ALLAN

• A real page turner. I loved this addictive story about love, loss, revenge and friendship. Readers will be rooting for Joni and her friends, but my most favourite character was Tyson, the furious chihuahua! I love Jane’s books and this one was such a treat to read

  ALICE FEENEY

  Glamour

  Closer

• Ingenious. Her eye for detail, compressed emotion and the absurdity that lurks beneath what people say to each other, is unerring. One of our very finest comic novelists
