I read this book while travelling around Europe - a friend I was travelling with was actually reading it at the beginning of our trip, and after hearing her laughing and giggling (as well as feeling compelled to read out large chunks to me) as she read it made me desperate for her to finish so I could borrow it!

We saw some weird sign that said "Restaurant, down here" so we went down an alleyway that looked like it was going to be a mugging. A really elaborate mugging, with sort of sign-painting muggers. But we found some restaurant which was next to an old Citroen garage - one of those hipster pop-ups. Sadly we couldn't get a table, so we thought we'd walk down the street and the first person who happened to be outside and wanted us to go in, we would. So we ended up having this brilliantly weird night of just saying 'yes'. I think those can be really exciting, it's just about doing something out of the ordinary.So, maybe Yeses are meant to be shared. Maybe that's what all this is about. Maybe life's about finding opportunities to share with someone. That's all it is, when you think about it. A series of opportunities to share."
