Ah, No Regrets. What a book you were. I enjoyed every minute of reading you. Most books have women as meek, mild little things. Not Tabitha Webb, though. She lets her characters roar. No Regrets follow three girlfriends as they fail, flounder and make bad decisions. Sometimes they are good, sometimes they are very, very naughty, but they are never not entertaining.

I saw Tabitha Webb talk about her book at a Harper Collins New Voices event at the beginning of the year and she was completely charming and funny, noting that she always thought her sex scenes were ‘PG, but turns out that is not the case.’

I only wish now I had elbowed my way in to have a chat with her. I reckon she makes the most fun, and loyal, friend ever. Anyway, back to the book: it is Jilly Cooper times ten. It is Jackie Collins and Helen Fielding rolled into one. It is both funny and outrageous and I cannot wait until I can read Tabitha Webb’s next book. Get it now, this is the perfect summer read. It will not fail to cheer you up in these covid times.

No Regrets is an outrageously funny, filthy and fabulous debut, focusing on the lives of three friends in their thirties and forties– Stella, Ana and Dixie. With shades of Sex and the City, this is the perfect summer read and carefree antidote to these troubled times.

Tabitha Webb was born in Ireland and grew up in Chicago, before being sent back to boarding school for her teenage years. She survived one term at university before packing her bags and chasing a hot surfer to America. During this period she was a rollerblading extra in the Robin Williams film The Birdcage, a dancer in a German pop video, and got held up at gunpoint.

After careers in TV and advertising, she made her first foray into fashion and now runs her eponymous fashion label, is happily married and has two daughters.

No Regrets was inspired by the love lives of women around the globe, coupled with a vivid imagination, and she can’t wait to shock and delight readers everywhere.
