Disappoint Me
By Nicola Dinan
MAY 2025

Rating: 5 out of 5.

Max is a trans woman in London, a lonely poet who still misses her ex and is woefully dissatisfied with her job, which involves training an AI robot to eventually replace her.

After her first date with Vincent, a Chinese lawyer she met on a dating app, everything could change for Max, perhaps forever. But is that actually a good thing?

Deliciously sardonic and intimately raw, Disappoint Me muses unflinchingly on friendship and forgiveness, personal growth, culture and identity; especially in terms of race and being trans.

A heartfelt, introspective and compassionate exploration on how one is seen and how one sees themselves, cut with a witty sense of humor that is laugh-out-loud funny.

Suffice to say, Disappoint Me has done anything but. Strongly recommend.
