""It's not me - it's you. You've let yourself go, so I'm letting you go too." When Edward Middleton hears those words from Jane, his girlfriend of the past ten years, he knows he's in serious trouble. Determined to get her back, Edward must learn how to make women fancy him again. But what makes for a good boyfriend nowadays? Right now, he's the kind of man who puts the 'ex' into 'sexy'. One thing is certain: if he's to be Jane's Mr Right, he needs to turn himself into a bit of all right. From Atkins and Botox, Edward begins working his way through the makeover alphabet. But can cuddly Teddy really become sexy Eddie? Can he rise from the ranks of discarded exes? Or has his journey of self-discovery taken him in a different direction entirely?"

Bought during our holidays in Dublin.

I bought this book hoping that it would be similar to Mike Gayle's books, but it stays a long away from them.
It made me a little mad from the beggining that someone decides to change everything about themselves just because the girlfriend decided to go to Tibet suddenly, leaving the house almost empty with just a note saying: it's not me, it's you. Well, she might be right, but what did she deserved with this attitude, like she did it?!
Edward best friend was really obnoxious, I wanted to hit him most of the time, and Edward was a little too obtuse and dummy for my taste.
The books is a light read, but not something that stays.
