About the Book

Brought to you by Penguin. Girl meets boy. Girl meets another boy. And another boy. And another. But this is not their story, it’s Margot’s. Boyfriend. House. Marriage. Kids. This is how Margot pictured her life would play out. But seventeen years after her first kiss, she still keeps falling at the first hurdle. So she’s about to take a different kind of leap. As Margot prepares to make the biggest decision of her life, she can’t help looking back on the relationships that shaped her. From situationships that sizzled to others that fizzled, from youthful infatuations to grown-up dilemmas, to the one she thought might be her happily ever after. What would you do if the life you’d always imagined for yourself didn’t materialize? Would you keep to the script, or would you write a new one? ‘One for Dolly Alderton fans’ The Times ‘With glorious attention to detail and emotional fluency, Dunn charts the ways in which we are built and broken by love' Pandora Sykes ‘An achingly relatable novel about the dreams we have for our lives, and what happens when we open ourselves up to letting them go’ Harper's Bazaar ©2024 Roxy Dunn (P)2024 Penguin Audio

Review :
This debut novel about womanhood and expectations will be one of the most exciting of the year This buzzy debut is a beautiful look at how love shapes us A vividly sketched, intense evocation of how we're shaped by those we know - one for Dolly Alderton fans A young woman's life, told through the men she has dated. With glorious attention to detail and emotional fluency, Dunn charts the ways in which we are built and broken by love Beautifully written ... The second person narration lends an authenticity to Margot's nostalgic reminiscences and honest look back at her past ... It's brilliant on comparisons, self-sabotage, social expectations, fear and settling. Wonderful Anyone who's ever experienced the slog of modern dating will love As Young As This, an achingly relatable novel that focuses on the dreams we have for our lives, and what happens when we open ourselves up to letting them go Relatable, poignant and gripping, told with great originality. Roxy Dunn is a fresh and exciting new voice in fiction ... I read it in a single day This will really speak to you if you've ever had to let go of what you thought your life would look like, readjust, and let a new life take hold I love love loved As Young as This ... I wanted to live inside it, wallowing in that gorgeous prose. And that ending! Well, I was not prepared. Dunn's debut novel, which combines lyrical writing with a very relatable main character, marks her out as a rising star

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
