DescriptionLazy Ways To Make A Living by Abigail Bosanko is a contemporary romantic comedy set in Edinburgh that follows Rose Budleigh, a highly intelligent but financially struggling graduate who returns home with a PhD in lexicography and no clear plan for her future. While her practical sisters worry about her lack of direction, Rose ends up taking temporary jobs such as tele-sales and market research just to survive. Everything changes when she unexpectedly reconnects with Jamie Cameron, a former chess rival from her teenage years who is now wealthy and successful. As their relationship develops, Rose finds herself drawn into a far more comfortable and indulgent lifestyle, but the arrangement raises questions about independence, ambition, and the cost of an apparently easy life.With its focus on family dynamics, modern relationships, and the contrast between idealism and practicality, the novel will appeal to readers who enjoy light contemporary fiction with humour, romance, and a strong female central character.
