Summary
Lucie Yi has tried love—it didn’t work.
She’s decided that finding Mr Right is a myth, and that finding Mr Right-enough-to-have-children-with is the next best option. So when she meets easy-going Collin Read on a platonic co-parenting website, it finally feels like she has found her version of happily-ever-after.
But things take a turn for the worse when they move back home to Singapore where her very traditional family and remorseful ex-fiancé await.
With pressure mounting on all sides and her perfect plan unravelling, Lucie has to decide how much she’s willing to sacrifice for a chance at happiness—and maybe, just maybe, love.
Critic reviews
"If Jane Austen and Kevin Kwan had a love child, it might well be Lucie Yi Is Not a Romantic. Lauren Ho’s most recent novel sits delightfully at the juncture of modern fertility, modern women and modern romance." (Jodi Picoult)
"Lucie Yi Is Not a Romantic kept me gripped from the very first page. It's full of humour and heart." (Beth O’Leary)
"Laugh-out-loud funny and unflinchingly honest, Lucie Yi Is Not a Romantic is a love letter to friendship and found family that manages to be head-spinningly romantic while simultaneously burning down the patriarchy." (Madi Sinha, author of At Least You Have Your Health)

A story which goes nowhere
If you're into something to get you to sleep at nights or where it doesn't really matter if you've forgotten parts, then this is the book for you. A sort of pleasant meandering dialogue. And a whole book where nothing really happens at all. Clearly the author has been through a similar experience (of wanting to get pregnant without a partner) and was in need of self therapy by writing it all down.
