You never plan to lose yourself in someone else’s life, until you do.

In Green Dot, twenty-four-year-old Hera feels like she’s going nowhere. Bored and brilliant, she spends her days moderating the online comments section of a news outlet, convinced adulthood is one long shrug. That is, until she meets Arthur, a married, middle-aged journalist who draws her into a thrilling, messy affair that turns her world upside down.

Darkly funny, disarmingly honest, and heartbreakingly raw, Madeleine Gray’s sharp-eyed novel follows Hera as she careens between desire and disillusionment, asking herself who she is becoming and what she’s willing to lose for a taste of feeling truly alive.
