About this listen

'For so long we'd been on the same path together. But somehow, along the way, I turned around and Genevieve kept going.'

Charlie, a prime-time radio producer in her early thirties, has always had a big group of friends - until she left her husband, and they all sided with him. Now she finds herself floundering in a sea of awkward run-ins and silent group chats. When her best friend Genevieve starts moving on with her life, too, Charlie realises how few significant people she has around her, and what a lonely place that can be.

Dreading the prospect of returning to her childhood home for the anniversary of her father's death, she busies herself by seeking new friendships - book clubs, pub crawls, team sports, the works. But Charlie's determination to surround herself with unfamiliar people forces her to confront her insecurities. What kind of life does she want? And who does she really want to spend it with?

For fans of Dolly Alderton and Zo� Foster-Blake, Isn't It Nice We Both Hate the Same Things is a bitingly witty yet moving take on the struggles of maintaining relationships and creating new ones as an adult - a story that ultimately celebrates the importance and complexities of best friends.
