I just finished reading this novel "My legendary Girlfriend" by Mike Gayle. There was a catchy description on the cover. "For those who have dumped, never been dumped and who have dumped before."

The story is about the main character, Will Kelly, who cannot get over his ex-girlfriend, Aggi. Even though Aggi dumped him like three years ago he still cannot get over her thinking she was the one for him.

The whole novel took place within a time frame from friday to monday(one weekend). It was interesting how the author illustrates everything done by Will every few hours within the time frame.

So many things happened within like 48 hours. Will found out that Aggi cheated on him with Simon his best friend.
Will chatted to this Kate on the phone due to unforseen circumstances, previous owner of the house he is living in right now, decides that he is in love with Kate proposes to her she agrees.

However the twist is that Kate was also suffering from a break up with Simon. Will found out that Simon still loves Kate alot and decides to bring them back together.

Then there was Alice good friend to Will always there for Will. Alice was also dumped by her boyfriend Bruce during some time in the story. Will comforts her.

All right, in the end, Will realizes that the one for him wasnt Aggi rather it was Alice who was with him before Aggi even appeared in the picture. Things never got going for them because they thought they could only be best friends.

It was really sweet.
There was this part in the novel which goes something like this-

Alice:I thought Aggi was the one for you
Will:But before her there was you. You were the correct one, Aggi was the wrong one. I realize there are no substitutes for you. Aggi was merely of standard which can measure up to you.

Its weird that the one for you could be right next to you yet you never notice.
