The Neighbours by @Nicola_J_Gill

Some women have it all. Others are thirty-four and rent a tiny flat alone because they recently found their long-term boyfriend in bed with their boss. Ginny Taylor is certain her life can't get any worse. But then she meets her downstairs neighbour...

Cassie Frost was once a beloved actress, but after a recent mishap she desperately needs a new publicist. And Ginny is a publicist who desperately needs a job - but can she be persuaded to work for the prickly woman who lives below her floorboards?

Ginny and Cassie are two very different women, but they have more in common than they'd care to imagine (or admit). And when their worlds collide, they realise that bad neighbours could become good friends...

This book was a joy to read. The first chunk of the book made me laugh so much. I loved Ginny. She's so real, overwrought, anxious and utterly clueless about what she really wants from life. Does she love Nick or Jack? Does she want kids or not? Does she want to be a writer or not? I loved the way her friendship with Cassie develops. They are very different people and clash at first but soon find common ground. I loved the scenes where Ginny goes to her creative writing classes. I've attended a few of these myself and Ginny's experience is spot-on. Things take a dark, unexpected turn and I was crying my eyes out for the last few chapters.
