Sorry Not Sorry
by Ranald, Sophie
If you have ever felt like the only person in the room who did not get the memo on how to be a functioning adult, Sophie Ranald has written your next favorite book. Sorry Not Sorry centers on a woman navigating the messy, often humiliating terrain of modern life, family expectations, and the quiet realization that the path you are on might not be the one you actually want. The tone is sharp and observational, leaning into a brand of humor that finds the absurdity in everyday disasters. It feels like chatting with a friend who is brutally honest about her own failings but is still rooting for you to figure things out. This is for readers who prefer their self-discovery journeys served with a side of biting wit and realistic, grounded stakes rather than fairy-tale endings.
