‘A yearning, tenderly bruising beauty of a book and a brilliant portrayal of friendship in the roaring noughties’ Rhik Samadder
It was a time of drinking too much and staying out all night.
Of boozy al fresco dinners, sneaking into private clubs and midnight strolls on Hampstead Heath.
It was a time of friendship, of falling in love and being young.
A time when you felt that anything could happen.
But the party can’t last forever, and for Joni and her friends, sunrise promises something darker than any of them could have imagined, as they face the one undeniable truth: it’s not if the party ends; it’s how.
‘A huge delight. I remained utterly gripped throughout’ Sofka Zinovieff, author of Putney
‘Engrossing . . . a powerful book with characters that will stay with you’ Heat
‘I loved Just for Today, a novel written by a young person about young people getting into the sort of muddles with love and friendship that tend to beset you in your twenties’ Nicola Shulman, Spectator Books of the Year

'What a yearning, tenderly bruising beauty of a book. Generous, gorgeous and funny, it's a brilliant portrayal of friendship in the roaring noughties. When I finished, I was so bereft and impressed that I turned straight back to the beginning and started again'
'Unputdownable. Totally wonderful'
'Engrossing . . . a powerful book with characters that will stay with you'
'An absolute page-turner of a coming-of-age story, a debut that pulls you in and doesn't let you go until the final page'
I was immediately pulled in with that wonderful feeling of "Ah, this is going to sail me along and provide huge delight." I longed to get back to it over the few days I read it and remained utterly gripped throughout
