The Shameless Book Club

Review: Small Joys of Real Life


Listen Later

Oh haaaiiii, book clubbers!

This month, we read the debut novel from Aussie author Allee Richards called Small Joys of Real Life. The book follows Eva, a pretty successful local actor, who accidentally falls pregnant to a guy called Pat who she had met just a handful of times, but really, really liked. It’s just that by the time she realises she is pregnant, Pat has died, and she is forced to reckon with a world where she raises a baby to a father she misses but also never really knew. Flanked by her loyal but equally flawed best friends Sarah and Annie, Eva begins to question her career, her future, and even the people she surrounds herself with.
