APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
A popular podcaster, author of acclaimed non-fiction and bestselling novelist following her fictional debut, Olive—Emma Gannon’s career is a blueprint for success. Yet Table for One, her second novel, proves she has an uncanny talent for reading the mind of every ordinary Millennial woman who’s deeply unsure of herself and in need of encouragement. This warm, empathetic and uplifting hug of a book follows Willow, whose seemingly perfect life is shattered when she’s dumped and then sacked in the same day. When she’s commissioned to profile edgy influencer Naz Chopra, who preaches the positive side of singledom, Willow begins a quest to learn how to enjoy life on her own terms. The accessibility of Gannon’s style belies the refreshing nuance she brings to exploring what it means to be single in today’s world—to defy society’s expectations and find fulfilment alone. Just make sure you have tissues handy.
