- Book Synopsis
- From new best friend to girl of her dreams. Sorry, Bro is an #ownvoices debut rom-com - a bisexual My Big Fat Greek Wedding. When Nar's boyfriend gets down on one knee and proposes to her a San Francisco bar, she realizes it's time to find someone who shares her idea of romance. Enter her mother who wants Nar to settle down with a nice Armenian boy. Armed with a spreadsheet of Facebook-stalked men, she convinces Nar to attend 'Explore Armenia', a month-long festival of events in the city. But it's not the parentally-approved playboy doctor or wealthy engineer who catches her eye - it's Erebuni, a cool and intriguing young woman fully intouch with her heritage. Suddenly, with Erebuni as her guide, the events feel like far less of a chore, and much more of an adventure. Erebuni helps Nar see the beauty of their shared culture and makes her feel understood in a way she never has before. But there's one teeny problem: Nar's not exactly out as bisexual. A funny, heartfelt and deeply relatable rom com about family, cultural identity, queer love, and the process of self-discovery that continues into adulthood as identities evolve, all in a fresh, humorous voice. Praise for Sorry, Bro: 'As I read [Sorry, Bro], I kept cackling out loud, I sometimes couldn't because I would be laughing so hard. But underneath the humour is such an important story of love between two women and the journey to rediscovering Armenian culture and heritage.' - Jesse Q. Sutanto, author of Dial A for Aunties 'Sorry, Bro explores bisexuality, culture, and self-discovery through moments that will make you laugh out loud. This new writer brings a fresh take on self-identity, with a story that will capture both your heart and sense of humour.' - Diva Magazine 'With this radiantly ravishing debut, Taleen Voskuni beautifully illustrates the courage it can take to be your own true self and risk everything for love.' - Booklist-Starred Review
