'The plot escalates with all the shameless hyperbole
needed to fuel a really good row ... this is a very funny book.' 'A brilliantly-written comedy. A novel that manages
to be both funny and affectionate' 'There is little to say about coupledom that is not
wittily and often movingly explored here. Sharply written, brilliantly
observed, and absolutely hilarious.' 'It is a sardonic, cool, fairground-ride of a book that is whipped
as fine as candy floss, and is just as ephemeral, but hugely satisfying' 'Consistently funny and unerringly true, Millington's... comic novel
is one of those reads that leaves you looking like an annoying mad person
on the bus as you chuckle every five seconds ... "Dad-lit" whimsy with
machine-gun volleys of humour, a swift pace and a self-deprecating sense
of the absurd' 'With his tear-inducing humour, Millington has tapped
into the zeitgeist, Helen Fielding-style.' 'Insightful and wickedly funny.' 'Compulsive reading ... drenched in self-deprecating
humour.' 'This first novel is a surprise hit ... a quirky
little comedy.' 'Riotously funny romance ... a brilliant, thoroughly
urbane hoot.' 'A very funny look at relationships.' 'A funny and heartwarming comedy about love, fatherhood
and being in the wrong places at all the wrong times.' 'Mil Millington's comic timing is spot-on in this
laugh-out-loud warm-hearted and engaging novel.' "Not, like many website-to-book translations, a straight
lift of the site with some new material added" 'Sounds intriguing ... and it is! A hilarious read about a young
dad who's always in the wrong place at the wrong time.' "Hilarious, I mean really, really funny. Mil has explored everything
about relationships here in a moving, brilliantly observed and affectionate
way without being nasty... it's so brilliantly, honestly funny, it makes
having relationships seem like so much fun. A great read even if you've
never had a relationship."

'In these troubled times, people should write more books like "Things
My Girlfriend And I Have Argued About".' 'How often does relationship humor make both sides laugh? As often
as Mil Millington puts pen to paper.' 'His remarks are like stand-up routines, but they're as fine-tuned
as Ray Romano's.' 'Turns neatly on clever wordplay, whip-crack dialogue, and shamelessly
outrageous hyperbole.' 'Read the book. It's laugh-out-loud funny and not the least bit
normal.' 'Hysterically funny.' 'Unlike your average love story.'
