‘Acutely smart’ – Elizabeth Day, author of Magpie
‘Completely addictive’ – Taylor Jenkins Reid, author of Daisy Jones and the Six
‘Funny, sexy, unafraid, completely unputdownable’ – India Knight, author of Darling

Jess first meets Josh at their Ivy League college. He is an entitled white guy in chinos, ready to inherit the world. She is almost always the only Black woman in their class. And she’s not expecting to inherit anything.

After graduation, Jess and Josh end up working at the same bank. They share lunch, they share sparring matches, they share ambitions. And suddenly they’re sleeping together . . .

Cecilia Rabess’ Everything’s Fine is hilarious, heartbreaking and impossible to put down.
