Praise for this book
"A wonderful writer, who will surely inspire a generation the way that Caitlin Moran did before her." - Julie Burchill
"I love this book. It is wise, funny, tender and true, sharply-observed and utterly hilarious. Alderton's gift is always to give the mundane its beautiful due and in Ghosts, she manages to write a compulsively readable novel about modern dating that also examines the stories we tell ourselves about home, identity and gender. Like all the best writers, she wears her talent lightly, but be in no doubt: Dolly Alderton's talent is phenomenal." - Elizabeth Day
"I loved it so much, I wanted it to go on forever, Dolly Alderton is so gifted at making people care. A rare talent." - Marian Keyes
