Trying, paperback/emily phillips

Hilarious, heartbreaking, truthful and bold Dolly Alderton Meet Olivia Galvin.

She knows shes lucky.

Theres the handsome husband.

The sounds-pretty-good-on-paper job.

A house they can just about afford.

Loving, intrusive and completely bonkers extended family.

Plus, shes having more sex than shes ever had in her life.

But the one thing she really wants seems to be the one thing she just cant seem to have.

Capturing the stress, sex and sometime hilarity of trying for a baby, Olivias all-too-familiar battles with modern life make her question whether having it all is ever really worth it.

************* Praise for Trying: Side-splittingly relatable Bryony Gordon God its powerful .
