Getting Over Mr Right

BEEN DUMPED? GET MAD. BUT NOT THIS MAD.   Have you ever had your heart broken? How did you get over it? If a pint of ice cream cheered you up and you were able to delete his number and start again then . . .  You’re a weirdo and this book is not for you.   But if you reacted with denial, begging, or a spot of casual witchcraft, then you’ve come to the right place. This is one woman’s journey from love to lunacy and back again. If you ever recall past heartbreaks with acute embarrassment and an urge to go into hiding, this will make you feel better. Sure, you may have sent his new girlfriend a bunch of dead roses, but did you spend a grand on psychic hot-lines and a voodoo curse?   Praise for the novels of Chrissie Manby   “Unputdownable.”—Heat (U.K.), on Getting Over Mr. Right   “I’ve always liked Manby’s books and this is my favourite so far . . . deeply cringe-making . . . often hilarious . . . I loved it. Six stars, hurrah!”—Daily Mail, on Getting Over Mr. Right   “If it’s not a man keeping you up until 3 a.m., it’ll be this book. . . . It’s a diamond-encrusted, guiltily pleasurable romp.”—Cosmopolitan, on Marrying for Money
