Sorry Not Sorry: The perfect laugh out loud romantic comedy

There aren't many self-published books that are this well done. No plot holes, unformed characters or editing mistakes, just a fun read with a lot of heart. A great premise fulfilled. The side storylines of girlfriends and housemate kept it fast paced, but didn't feel like rabbit holes. She makes the reader care about every character. All in all, a classic piece of chick lit that's better than the same genre from major publishing houses.

This was such a fun book! It took me a bit to actually get into, but I ended up really enjoying it. It was very British which was fun. The setting of a hedge fund was quite interesting. The romance kept me guessing for a while longer than I thought it would. I liked the different plot lines that Sorry Not Sorry had going: Charlotte's dating life, Maddy's wedding, hedge fund drama, etc. Charlotte was a great main character - interesting, funny, and easy to empathize with. I really liked her, and wouldn't mind reading more about her. Good ending to the story! I think that this book really gave me a glimpse into what it's like to work at a hedge fund as a twenty something, and deal with dating life, and friends moving into different stages of life. It was quite interesting, and I will definitely be picking up more from Sophie Ranald in the future! 4 stars.

It is a fun and light reading but a dramatic one at the same time! Def worth taking the time to read it.

Hard to get into & took me a while to invest in the characters but once I finally did, I truly enjoyed it! Loved the characters, super relatable, and lots of funny moments! Would be a great movie or show! Just ordered the next one & can't wait to learn about Tansy after the break up & then Sloane & Myles! Eeek! Thanks for the good read during this crappy quarantine!❤

The tale of “”Good Girl Bad Girl” is best told by the characters. In many ways it’s similar to other novels of the same genre but I’m a sucker for British writers of the genre. I even listened to UK-based bands referred to in the book on YouTube to better get the mood and put in context of the time it was written and found I’d stumbled onto new-to-me music I now enjoy regularly like The Lumineers. Check them out especially for their original lyrics. It’s helpful to download from Kindle the UK - British dictionary to parse out the unique UK slang to accurately describe the text. The dictionary is a great tool and I’m grateful to the developers of Kindle for making it easily accessible. It’s not as entertaining as the rom/com UK author’s work in the genre of Robert Brynzda: the Coco series but GBBG was a wonderful romp. I also really love the work of Spalding (can’t recall his first name...) which is solidly entertaining. So much so I even pre-ordered his next book at a bargain at $3.99.

If you read my reviews you already know that I read a lot and only write if I feel strongly about a book, either good or bad. I will say that I am not very fond of British books in general - they use common words only those from England would know and it is sometimes difficult to follow the story. I picked Sorry Not Sorry just from the description of a perfect laugh out loud romantic comedy. It is not. But....it IS a very good read about everyday life for a single semi-professional young woman, with all the struggles that come with relationships, both personal and professional. With some hiccups along the way, things work out the way they should. A little predictable, but a really good read.

Easy read. Definitely a much younger writer. Cute, sassy, and life of being in your twenties . The dating scene, roommate situation.

It was a ok book. I didn’t find it as funny as people were saying

Well written characters, but plot was far too predictable and though I read the whole thing, I didn't find it funny at all, never mind laugh out loud. Ok as an "under the beach umbrella" read.

Too hilarious

I thoroughly enjoyed reading Charlotte’s story in Sorry, not Sorry. I couldn’t wait to find out who she may end up with Myles, Adam, I had a feeling it could have been Xander! How kind he was to her at the office. I am sad to have finished - but have so many unanswered questions?! What happened with Tansy and Renzo? Did Maddy and Henry have a baby?! Did Adam and Tansy remain at the flat whilst Charlotte and Xander went off on their travels?! Also will we ever find out how Travis tracked down Tansy?! But all in all a great, steamy, funny read and we can’t forget the main bad girl herself - did her relationship work out with the one?? I can’t wait to read Sophie’s other titles. Thank-you for such a gripping novel :)

Sorry, Not Sorry is a fun, entertaining novel and an easy read, perfect for a lazy day on the beach or after a long day at work. If follows the story of Charlotte, a bored twenty-seven year old woman struggling to find love. When she listens to the podcast “Sorry Not Sorry,” which encourages women to find their inner bad girl and jump into the dating game, Charlotte takes the challenge and stumbles into a comedy of errors. There are laugh-out-loud moments, cringe-worthy moments, and fun surprise moments. The writing is easy to follow and the pace is comfortable for a late night read with a cuppa. Charlotte is a well-developed and relatable character as she struggles through love’s highs and lows. She fumbles around in the dating game, mostly making a fool out of herself, but learns from her experiences and earns self-respect. And of course, the person she ends up with is the last person she expects. This isn’t a fast-paced narrative, but the writing style (told from Charlotte’s perspective) is often dead-pan and witty, and is extremely gratifying. The supporting characters are developed well and are believable—we all have a friend or a boss like Charlotte’s. Overall, this is an enjoyable chick-lit rom-com. It won’t change your life, but it’s a must-read for anyone who loves romance and humour.

Kept me reading for hrs. I ordered the next two books to read Myles story and her roommates story
