Don't Swipe Right by Lm Chilton
'Kept me guessing and was so fun to read.' BRITNEY SPEARS, People Magazine Favorite Beach Read Pick 'Utterly compelling and laugh-out-loud funny.' KATY BRENT 'As if Bridget Jones found herself in a Scream film. Murderously clever!' RUPERT HOLMES Dating apps are so dead. Gwen Turner, 29, entrepreneur and part-time barista. Likes: true-crime podcasts, cheese-based snacks (the more unnaturally orange the better) and constantly refreshing her dating apps. Dislikes: two-day hangovers, people who refer to themselves as entrepreneurs... and discovering her latest match is actually a serial killer (probably should have put that top of the list). They say romance is dead, but if Gwen can’t catch the mystery killer who’s targeting every man she’s ever dated, it’s about to get a whole lot deadlier. A twisty, fast-paced and darkly hilarious modern murder mystery set in the terrifying and mystifying world of online dating, Don't Swipe Right is perfect for fans of Bella Mackie's How To Kill Your Family and Netflix's You. 'Rarely is murder so much fun!' Rachel Wolf 'Hilariously satirical novel... It's a clever concept, and Chilton imbues his critiques and observations of the modern dating scene with over the top absurdities and heart.' Glamour 'You'll come for the addictive murder mystery, and stay for the brilliant satire of modern dating at its worst.' Hayley Quinn 'A funny and outspoken comedy of manners... a proper whodunnit.' Morning Star 'Mystery fans will rush to swipe right on Chilton—he’s got the goods.' Publishers Weekly, Starred Review 'A dark and gripping comedy, we laughed our way through... Brilliant.' That's Life! 'Chilton shines a blackly humorous light on male misbehavior and love in the age of the internet.' Kirkus 'Playful and pacy... balancing gory with mischievous.' Love Reading 'Kept me guessing right to the end... funny and quirky to boot.' Nicole Kennedy

I started Swiped right before bed and stayed up until 2am to finish it. Who knew a book about a serial killer could be so funny and fun? I couldn't put it down, and loved every twist, turn and terrible date. * Jennifer Close, New York Times bestselling author of Girls in White Dresses and Marrying the Ketchups *
Witty and loads of fun, Swiped is full of plot twists and scarily accurate insights on dating in the age of technology. * Margarita Montimore, USA Today bestselling author of Oona Out of Order. *
A funny, charming page-turner, but also a sharp observation of online dating culture. Fast-paced, twisty and great fun! * Amy Tintera, author of Listen for the Lie *
When the author of one of our favorite books, Murder Your Employer, says that a novel is like “Bridget Jones found herself in a Scream film,” there is no choice but to read that book. It’s more darkly hilarious than dear ol’ Bridget’s mishaps, which is to say it does for internet dating what Bridget did for husband-hunting, except with a lot more murder. Half a dozen of them, to be exact. And a whole lot of red herrings, grimly funny disastrous date recaps, and a crashed ice cream truck. V. good, indeed. * Vannessa Cronin, Amazon US Editor's Pick *
