Five lonely strangers join a bar trivia team in an effort to find friends, but end up on a path that will change each of their lives forever, in this heartwarming debut perfect for fans of Beth O’Leary and Sophie Kinsella.
How do you make friends as an adult? That’s one question lonely Londoners Bryony, Harry, Jaime, Luke, and Donna would really like the answer to. They tend to do better with questions of a different variety—trivia questions like How did prosecco get its name? and Which Mariah Carey song has topped the charts in twenty-six countries?
In an effort to meet new people, the five not-yet-friends answer an ad seeking members of a bar trivia team—the Red Hot Quizzy Peppers. As the weeks go on, the disparate band of unhappy strangers becomes swept up in both the buzz of winning and the way quiz nights start to bond them together in friendship . . . to the detriment of other parts of their lives. 
Despite all odds, the Quizzy Peppers might just have a shot at making the London Pub Quiz League’s Grand Final, if only they can get past the Golden Girls, the Banana Splits, and the Bombay Bad Boys.
Utterly charming and uplifting, The Lonely Hearts Trivia Night is a story of finding friendship, love, confidence, and purpose—just right for fans of Jennifer Weiner.

      Farnsworth’s cozy debut walks the line between romance and women’s fiction as four well-rounded characters find comfort and community in one another. Lonely Londoner Donna, a brash trivia enthusiast who’s recently suffered a bout of depression, posts an online ad looking for people to form a pub quiz team and gets four volunteers: couple Jamie and Luke are new to London and teetering on the verge of breaking up; Bryony is a stay-at-home mom looking for purpose outside the house; and Harry is “between jobs” and recently went through a breakup. Together the “Red Hot Quizzy Peppers” team up to tackle the London Pub Quiz League tournament, whose grand prize is £10,000. As they progress through the rounds, they grow closer to each other and each team member encounters trials and tribulations in their personal and romantic lives. While the individuals’ lives are interesting, romance fans may be disappointed by the lack of one strong central love story. Still, there’s no denying this has heart. Agent: Laura Williams, Greene & Heaton.
