Description

From the author of the smash hit Call It What You Want comes an honest, charming romcom about an up-and-coming romance author stifled with writer's block who decides to force meet-cutes everywhere she goes in the hopes that classic romance tropes can spark something IRL.

From the author of the smash hit Call It What You Want comes a fresh, charming romcom about the chaos of dating in your twenties, the ache of a brutal breakup, and the hilarious lengths one romance writer will go to get her spark back—including staging her own meet-cutes. Perfect for fans of Katherine Center and Emily Henry's Beach Read.

If you can't write a good meet-cute, maybe you need to live one first...

Ainsley Green writes happily-ever-afters for a rabid fanbase of hopeless romantics. In real life? Her boyfriend just broke up with her, her editor wanted a new book yesterday, and she's starting to wonder if love actually exists beyond the pages of her favourite novels.

So when Lucas, Ainsley's best friend and biggest cheerleader, insists the best cure for writer's block is real-life inspiration, she's ready to try anything. Enter - the meet-cute plan, a mission to take her head out of her heartbreak and force meet-cutes IRL to spark some new ideas. But as failed missions bumping into strangers at the airport and spilling coffee on men at the cafe result in nothing but embarrassment and stained clothing, Ainsley begins to wonder if maybe the romance she's been chasing already has a leading man.

Because the truth about falling in love? It never goes according to plan.

Equal parts heartbreak, humour, and hope, How to Find Love in the Cereal Aisle is a fresh, flirty send-up of dating in the modern age and a reminder that love finds us when we stop performing and start living.
