The Brand New Book from David Nicholls is Here!

We’ve waited four years for David Nicholls to return with a new novel for us to fall in love with, and in Sweet Sorrow he gives us a heart-warming and beautifully-written story that perfectly captures the heartache and humour of first love. Sixteen year old Charlie Lewis has just finished school for the summer, and with trouble at home and a disappointing performance in his exams, he’s not exactly feeling hopeful about the future. That is until he’s roped into a minor part in an amateur performance of Romeo and Juliet. Fran Fisher is playing Juliet, and Charlie is completely smitten. But, as we all know, our teenage years are built for figuring out who we are, often with painfully embarrassing consequences, and as Charlie tries to fit in with the crowd at the Company we can’t help but cringe, laugh and cry along with him. David has once again gripped us with his ability to capture those experiences we can all relate to, and we know you’re going to love Charlie just as much as we do.
