Love And Other Human Errors

set in the near future, the most original rom-com you'll read this year!

By: Bethany Clift

Narrated by: Chris Harper, Imogen Church, Jane Collingwood

An unforgettable story about love in all its chaotic glory from the author of Last One At The Party

The convention of a book synopsis is fundamentally ridiculous. How can I adequately convey in only 150 words the complexity and bewilderment of the past ten months and the effect the events that occurred have had on my perfectly regulated existence?

One would need much longer to record in detail how I was blackmailed into demonstrating the efficacy of my soulmate program and forced to participate in a series of ridiculous dates. How my life has been forever altered as a consequence.

Prior to this I was driven and focused, consumed with work, destined to change the world with my brilliance. I had no family, no friends and no need for frivolous human connection. I was systemic and solitary, a woman with one goal.

I am that person no longer.

My name is Indiana Dylan and this is the story of how I fell in love.

There: 150 words precisely.

Critic reviews

An absolute riot, a joyous reboot of the rom-com that explores the power and unpredictability of human connection. In a gorgeous cast of characters, my absolute favourite was Peggy. WE ALL NEED A PEGGY.

Utterly fabulous! Bethany injects so much joy and humour into her books; creating characters you will love, and stories that will make you laugh and cry at literally the same time.

Love and Other Human Errors is at once a beautiful, poignant and witty observation on what it is to be human and to try and figure out love in all its messy chaos. Bethany possesses such talent in combining sharp wit with original ideas. I can't wait to see what she comes up with next.

Even the most hardened cynic won't be able to resist this funny and touching story about all the wonderful messiness of love

This original story is wonderful on love, loss, loneliness and the vital importance of human connection

Such is the wit and exuberance of her writing, so engaging are her characters, it's easy to miss the sheer ingenuity that's gone into the science fiction element

A heartwarming story of love, trust and friendship - utterly unputdownable

An eerie yet witty tale of what the future might be like in the world of digital dating

Quirky, cute and surprising

In a word a perfect match

For me and for me at this moment in my life. This story and the performances of it shook me. Helped me. Comforted me. Thank you thank you thank you to all involved. Mostly to my friend Imogen Church. I love you / your work and recommendation.
Your most grateful fan.
