Oh wow. I loved this book - although I did feel that it was a little too long.
Lauren returns home from a hen party one night to be greeted by Michael, her husband. Except, Lauren isn't married.
But whence speaks to her friends, it seems as though they have been together for ages.

Things only get weirder when Michael climbs the attic and when he climbs back down the ladder, there's a completely different man. Also a husband.
What is going on? And why is it that every time Lauren sends a man up into her attic, another one comes down?

Really enjoyed this book - was a real page turner and I wasn't sure how it would end! A house where your attic generates husbands provides a surprising amount of twists and turns to life, particularly when they're not always the best housemate.
Lauren is a good character to spend time with as she's funny but not quite perfect, surrounded by a host of likeable friends and more of a mixed-bag of husbands. It made me glad that I don't have an attic so don't have to worry about any potential ethical choices or judging my relationship status!

I've been hearing a lot about this book and was excited to dip in. It's an utterly delightful, rom-com (or is it?) with a really fun central concept - what if you had a magic attic that produced different husbands? This is the predicament single, thirty-something Lauren finds herself in when, after a night out celebrating her friend's hen do, she comes home to find a strange man in her house.

Once she's worked out it's her attic conjuring men, there's a lot of enjoyment to be had as she cycles through a multitude of different husbands trying to find the one that she wants to settle down with and also trying out different versions of her life at the same time. It's obviously a clear comment on modern dating culture and the ability to judge and swipe on the apps. This metaphor is hammered home a little strongly when Lauren also tries dating via apps later in the book, but you sort of forgive it any clunkiness as there's so much joy in the quirkiness. I also found the ending petered out a bit and I actually found the messaging a bit depressing (which isn't usually the case for books of this type), but overall I was totally engrossed and entertained and would recommend just based on the concept.

Perfect for fans of Emily Henry or Taylor Jenkins Reid., I think we'll be hearing a lot about this book!
