Every love story has a beginning.
But the ending is yet to be written…
‘Elijah is gripped by a vertiginous feeling, a short shock of realisation of how much he wants this to be the start of something, just as he reaches a precipice that reveals it might be the end…‘
The Start of Something follows the lives of ten interlocking characters, as their lives collide unexpectedly and often romantically – from thrilling first meetings and touching moments, to long-held loves or abuses of power – that explore what true intimacy and love might look like in today’s world.
A razor-sharp, intoxicating and thought-provoking novel that will appeal to fans of Expectation by Anna Hope, Normal People by Sally Rooney, Insatiable by Daisy Buchanan and Amazon Prime’s Modern Love.
