Description
Should Liv take herself out of the friend zone, or are they better off there?
Liv Granger has been flailing through life since her teens. When her brother, Joe, announces his engagement to his long-term boyfriend, Liv realises that she has never been able to commit to anything – a career, a fixed address, a relationship – and she may, in fact, be a massive loser.
With the help of Joe and Henry, her oldest friend, Liv comes up with the Loser List: ten tasks to change her life. The most challenging – three dates with the same person. After each increasingly disastrous date, Henry is always there to the rescue. Has what she’s been looking for been right in front of her the whole time?
Between restraining her mother’s wedding planning and doing everything in her power to not be her father’s wingman for his various short-lived girlfriends, Liv learns that the path to self-improvement needs to start with a little self-acceptance…
A laugh-out-loud romantic comedy for fans of Sophia Money-Coutts, Sarah Hogle and Sally Thorne.

Featured Reviews
This book reminded me of Nina Kenwood. An easy and entertaining read about a young woman who doesn't think her life is panning oput as it should. Liv has been working the same part time job since high school, has never managed to finish her degree, no permanent place to call home and a complex family dynamic.
There is no rule book that tells us we have do thing by a ceratin age, or in a certain order, but I think there are a lot of young women who will identify with Liv's story, feeling that their not 'doing life' quite right.
The surprise highlight characters in this book for me are Liv's neice Daisy, and her best friend Barry. We all need a Barry in our corner!
Classic friend to lover trope will appeal to a a large readership, and ebven through Canelo is a UK imprint, this title is by an Australian author, set in Australia.
