Today I am really excited to be joining the mini blog blitz for When Polly met Olly by Zoe May. Many thanks to Rachel at Rachel’s Random Resources for the invitation to take read and review this light hearted book.
My Review
A brilliant light hearted read of pure escapism set in the heart of New York.
Polly is a bubbly vibrant character that you instantly like who is determined to live her dream and be a success in New York. When Polly lands a new jobs she is sent to the offices where Olly works and she realises that she might fancy him.
This book oozes wonderful characters from the deceitful Alicia, to the charming Olly and her room mate who loves drag in his spare time. There is something for everyone as you explore New York and meet these wonderful characters and spend time with them all.
A light hearted read that will make you laugh and cringe as you read, a great read to snuggle up with on a cold evening and this is now my new favourite book from this author.
Book Blurb
Polly and Olly were never supposed to meet…
Polly might spend her days searching for eligible matches for her elite list of clients at her New York dating agency, but her own love life is starting to go up in smoke.
Even worse, she can’t stop thinking about the very person she’s meant to be setting her latest client up with… surely it can’t get any worse!
But then Polly bumps into oh-so-handsome Olly, who heads up a rival agency, and realizes that perhaps all really is fair in love and dating war…
Perfect for fans of Sophie Kinsella and Debbie Viggiano.
About the Author
Zoe May is an author of romantic comedies. Zoe has dreamt of being a novelist since she was a teenager. She worked in journalism and copywriting in London before writing her debut novel, Perfect Match. Having experienced the London dating scene first hand, Zoe couldn’t resist writing a novel about dating since it seems to supply endless amounts of weird and wonderful material!
Perfect Match was one of Apple’s top-selling books of 2018. It was also shortlisted for the Romantic Novelists’ Association’s Joan Hessayon Award, with judges describing it as ‘a laugh out loud look at love and self-discovery – fresh and very funny’.
As well as writing, Zoe enjoys walking her dog, painting and, of course, reading! She adores animals and if she’s not taking a photo of a vegan meal, she’s probably tweeting about the dairy industry. She is half Greek and half Irish and can make a mean baklava. Zoe has a thing for horror films, India, swimming, hip hop and Radiohead. She has an encyclopaedic knowledge of handbags having spent several years working in fashion copywriting and could probably win Mastermind if this was her specialist subject!
