![]() ![]() I recently saw a comment on Instagram which said: “All men have is the audacity”, this is what I thought of when Max went back to Nina. What really got me out of all the waiting Nina did was the cheek of Max. ![]() It’s the hopeful picking up of the phone after a few minutes of not being on it, or rushing out of the shower to check if you have a text message but your phone turns out to be completely empty. We spend countless hours/days re-living the little encounters and waiting for that person to text you. After their break-up, Nina gets stuck on Max for a while, re-reading text messages or playing games of “if I do this he will text back”. The “relationship” doesn’t last very long as Max is a commitment-phobe and not very honest about the extent of it. She’s an ex English teacher and a writer who goes through her day to day life, experiencing day to day things. Nina isn’t a well-known lawyer whose marriage is falling apart, or she’s not in a scandal which will ruin her life. ![]() The book is real in the most non-dramatic way. One episode was about dating apps, the other about mother and daughter relationships and the irritation that comes with it. I felt like I was listening to a podcast rather than a book. I think the most gripping thing about Ghosts is how relatable it is. ![]()
