'Meloy's style is as fresh and brisk as an ocean breeze.'
Sunday Times

Caught between opposing forces - fidelity and desire, impulse and security, innocence and experience - these
unforgettable characters have each reached a fork in the road. But what kind of fool wants it only one way? Funny,
sly and sparkling with energy, Both Ways Is the Only Way I Want It confirms Maile Meloy as an enthralling storyteller.
