An Evening with Elle McNicoll in Cambridge

We are thrilled to host Elle McNicoll as she celebrates the publication of Unapologetic Love Story – a smart, sassy and romantic novel with an important message at its heart. This debut adult romcom from the author of A Kind of Spark and Role Model focuses on a London It Girl with a hit podcast highlighting autistic women and the journalist determined to uncover her secret. She will be in conversation with author Bea Ingalls.

Elle McNicoll is a bestselling and award-winning novelist and screenwriter whose debut novel A Kind of Spark won the Blue Peter Book Award and the Overall Waterstones Children’s Book Prize, as well as Blackwell’s Book of 2020.
