"Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine" by Gail Honeyman
This seems to be her first and only novel. It was very successful in terms of money apparently and short-listed for the Lucy Cavendish College Fiction Prize. It was this month's choice for my "Young Bookclub". I really liked it and it certainly was very polished in terms of writing. It primarily revolves around the main character "Eleanor" who is lonely and has experienced a great trauma. It would be a very sad tale but Eleanor is very amusing and her reflections on many aspects of society are spot on.
