Girl meets boy. Girl meets another boy. And another boy. And another.
But this is not their story, it’s Margot’s.

Boyfriend. House. Marriage. Kids. This is how Margot pictured her life would play out. But seventeen years after her first kiss, she still keeps falling at the first hurdle.

So she’s about to take a different kind of leap. As Margot prepares to make the biggest decision of her life, she can’t help looking back on the relationships that shaped her. From situationships that sizzled to others that fizzled, from youthful infatuations to grown-up dilemmas, to the one she thought might be her happily ever after.

What would you do if the life you’d always imagined for yourself didn’t materialize? Would you keep to the script, or would you write a new one?


‘One for Dolly Alderton fans’ The Times

‘With glorious attention to detail and emotional fluency, Dunn charts the ways in which we are built and broken by love' Pandora Sykes

‘An achingly relatable novel about the dreams we have for our lives, and what happens when we open ourselves up to letting them go’ Harper's Bazaar

Kritikerstimmen

This debut novel about womanhood and expectations will be one of the most exciting of the year
This buzzy debut is a beautiful look at how love shapes us
A vividly sketched, intense evocation of how we're shaped by those we know - one for Dolly Alderton fans
A young woman's life, told through the men she has dated. With glorious attention to detail and emotional fluency, Dunn charts the ways in which we are built and broken by love
Beautifully written ... The second person narration lends an authenticity to Margot's nostalgic reminiscences and honest look back at her past ... It's brilliant on comparisons, self-sabotage, social expectations, fear and settling. Wonderful
As Young As This is raw, funny and beautiful - Roxy has such a lyrical and perceptive voice, this is a really gorgeously observed novel about youth and womanhood and I can’t wait to see it fly
Anyone who's ever experienced the slog of modern dating will love As Young As This, an achingly relatable novel that focuses on the dreams we have for our lives, and what happens when we open ourselves up to letting them go
Relatable, poignant and gripping, told with great originality. Roxy Dunn is a fresh and exciting new voice in fiction ... I read it in a single day
This will really speak to you if you've ever had to let go of what you thought your life would look like, readjust, and let a new life take hold
What a treat to spend time with a character like Margot – warm, witty, wise (at least most of the time). A thoughtful and moving portrait of a young woman as she feels her way through life and love that made me laugh and cry
