Double Booked by Lily Lindon

4.0

Thanks to the publisher for the advance copy of Lily Lindon's delightful bisexual disaster comedy Double Booked.

This is a really enjoyable novel about protagonist Gina realising she's bisexual and dealing with it by secretly splitting her life in two, one with her long term boyfriend, and one where she becomes George, a lesbian in a queer band whose obsessed with her fuckboi bandmate. It's a total car crash of terrible decisions, internalised biphobia and self-delusion but one you can't look away from!

Something I really loved about Double Booked is that like Kate Davies In At The Deep End it felt like a very realistic portrayal of queer life in London. Who amongst us haven't seen an astrology-based lesbian band in Dalston or Peckham in our time?
