Anna Hope masterfully delves into the complexities of difficult moments, making her characters feel like close friends. Hannah, Cate, and Lissa are vibrant and inseparable, living in East London, where their lives are filled with art, activism, and the excitement of youth.

This novel captures the ebb and flow of friendship, illustrating how it can falter and flourish over time. It also explores the journey of self-discovery as mothers, daughters, wives, and rebels. Central to the narrative is the tension between expectation and reality, a space rich with dreams, desires, and pain that resonates with us all. Critics have praised the work for its intimate portrayal of female friendship, likening it to a 'What they did next' story reminiscent of Sally Rooney's style. Readers have found it exceptional and beautifully written, likening it to a love letter to London, and celebrating its exploration of the nuanced dynamics of friendship in the context of personal growth and societal expectations.
