These are two of the themes tackled in Leitrim author Aisling Rawle's sharp debut novel, a riff on reality television show Love Island which is currently gracing our screens. Then again, after reading her carefully constructed story in, we know that everything is calculated and very few things accidental.

Love Island viewers all saying same thing as stars prepare for final villa date

Love Island fans were less than impressed as it was announced the contestants had to prepare for final date nights in the villa. Friday night's Love Island episode saw stars on the show discuss the aftermath of a recent challenge, Mirror UK reports, during which couples were tasked with writing the same answers on a board when they were asked a question. Following a good night's sleep, the boys got a text telling them to get ready to leave the villa in preparation for a cute date night later on in the villa. Fans of the show were joking about the budget dates as they rushed to social media to share their thoughts on this year's set up. One user said: "Don't tell me these are the final dates." Another posted: "Another year of budget final dates," while one fan commented: "Another year another villa date for everyone. ITV is so poor." One added: "Have they f**ked the final dates off for these s***ty in villa dates?" Meanwhile, Helena and Blu were dumped from the villa only a few days before the final. Fans have been speculating who of the final six would be the last couple to be dumped before the winner is crowned. Last night, the Islanders took part in the Knowing Me, Knowing You challenge, hosted by Yas and Jamie. The Islanders were asked a series of questions, some light hearted, and some not so light hearted. Despite a number of arguments, it was Meg and Dejon and Shakira and Harry who came out victorious. It resulted in Dejon and Meg arguing over his decision to pick Yas when asked who he would couple up with if his partner wasn't there. He said at the fire pit: "You're trying to make me look bad. And I don't understand why you are trying to make me look bad." Meg answered: "I am not trying to make you look bad." Dejon added: "At the time, Billykiss was also in the villa. I said to Yas you are my number one. And then after you, it would be if I had to, it would be Yas and Billykiss." When Meg said 'yeah', he asked whether she remembered the conversation, which she said she did. Unsatisfied with her answer, he added: "I know but I know what I am saying. You just tried to act like I didn't tell you that. That's a big thing." Meg defended herself: "No, but you didn't say the words, if Meg wasn't there then she would be your number one priority. You didn't say them words, you said if Meg wasn't there, then it would be Yasmin and Billykiss."
