You've Changed

by Ian Williams

LONGLISTED FOR THE 2025 GILLER PRIZE
A GLOBE AND MAIL BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR
NATIONAL BESTSELLER

The eagerly awaited follow-up novel from the Giller prize-winning author of Reproduction, You’ve Changed is a daring and clever dissection of a crumbling marriage between two people who are morphing in ways that confound each other.

Middle-aged and about to be dumped from his construction job, Beckett is not feeling his best—especially since his wife, Princess, is already pressuring him to improve himself. She’s a fitness instructor who spends a lot of time and energy finetuning every inch of her body. Still, they both think their marriage is basically fine, until a couple of friends show up for a visit, their mutual affection and sexual chemistry loudly on display. In one weekend, they upset the tenuous balance between Beckett and Princess, throwing them into parallel midlife crises.

Princess thinks the problem is physical, and attempts to revive Beckett's interest with relentless surgical alterations and bodily enhancements that have the opposite effect on her husband. Beckett tries to woo Princess back to him by relaunching his contracting business, laying his manly accomplishments at her feet. Then, while Princess is away pursuing even more drastic beauty measures, Beckett meets Gluten, an energetic and erratic man devoted to living in the moment, whom Beckett feels drawn to in ways that surprise him. Beckett is changing, Princess is what will happen to their already stressed marriage?

Sharp, inventive and absurdly funny, You’ve Changed is a wild ride exploring identity, insecurity, intimacy and desire, and who individuals become when they unite, and how they change despite promising not to.

✨ Rating: 3⭐️
🫧 Vibes: self-reflection meets discomfort
🎶 Song: talk - hozier
📚 Would I recommend? meh
💬 tldr thoughts: It didn’t fully deliver the emotional punch I was hoping for.

In the package:
📦 quiet rage
📦 social commentary
📦 polite chaos

Plot: This book is a social commentary on identity and relationships and explores the shift of power dynamics as people evolve. We follow Beckett and Princess, who are in a crumbling marriage and changing in ways that confounds them.

Thoughts: This book just wasn’t for me. It was a little strange and not typically the type of book I read but hey at least I tried going out of my comfort zone 🙂‍↕️ My biggest issue is how the book is written, it was hard to follow at times with the unfinished sentences and inner thoughts. I get what the author was trying to do but I don’t think it worked effectively. He did capture the awkwardness between the characters very well, I was so uncomfortable at times 💀

Both characters were also insufferable so I didn’t find myself rooting for anyone. They were both insanely superficial and only cared about appearances in different ways.

Thank you Random House Canada for a finished copy of this book!

UPDATE following the 9 Jun 2026 Giller Prize webinar interview with the author:
When asked his reasoning for the 'word redacting' Williams explained it by saying that, at the time he was writing it, Bill C-34 was in the news (Canada's Safe Social Media Act).🤔 I'm not sure how his readers would be expected to connect those dots, though.


🍁🇨🇦—2.5 stars.

I'm kind of at a loss for what to say about this book. It's like nothing I've ever read before. Every single character was unlikeable—even the cat😮 (Pamplemousse). Yes—the cat is called a french grapefruit, and it's similarly sour.🙄 The three main characters are not only unlikeable, they're despicable—the grossly unstable married couple, Beckett (a renovation manic) and Princess (is any part of her body real?), and Beckett's "new friend" Cliff (aka Gluten).

I'm sure I thought about DNF-ing at least 25 times but, for some odd reason, I finished it, even though it got progressively worse as it went along. And I don't know WHY, but about halfway through, certain words were suddenly blacked-out. Fairly innocuous words like 'sex', 'porn', 'dick', and 'piss'.🤔 I know!!🤨 WHY would words like that be blacked-out? At first I thought it might be a problem with my electronic copy, but then I read many of the reviews and several mentioned this same problem. So, beats me why they'd do that, but I really don't care anymore.😒 This is a book that meant ZERO to me, and I'm sure I'll forget it by next week. I have a few Ian Williams novels, but this is the first (and last) I've actually read.🫤

Next Tuesday, 9 June, I'll be watching a webinar where Canadian author Robyn Read will interview Ian Williams as one of the long- or short-listed Giller Prize authors for 2025. Hopefully he'll clear up some of the confusion about this very strange little book.

The ups and downs of a marriage where the two people in question are obsessed with superficial labels and appearances. This novel didn’t hit hard like REPRODUCTION, but I still enjoyed the playfulness of the writing. But yeah, these two characters were so vapid, it made it hard to care about all the hijinks.

Interesting marriage study

[Dawn · Rating 1 out of 5]

I didn’t finish this book, I found it difficult to stay engaged. The dynamics within the central couple were frustrating and irritating. The obsession with appearance and manliness quickly became tedious, and I didn’t feel the payoff was worth pushing through.

I can appreciate that others might find value in the book’s themes, but it just didn’t work for me.

This book managed to make me feel nothing but disappointment

[Davina · Rating 3 out of 5]

You’ve Changed follows Beckett and Princess, a married couple whose lives are quietly unraveling. Beckett, a recently fired construction worker, struggles to rebuild his sense of self-worth while clinging to his marriage. Princess, a fitness instructor obsessed with reshaping her body through plastic surgery, believes she’s giving Beckett what he wants. Told through shifting perspectives—including a clever move from third person to first—the novel explores self-image, intimacy, and the complexities of a marriage in quiet crisis.

This was an interesting read, though I quickly realized it wasn’t meant for me. I don’t think it’s a bad book. In fact, for the right reader, it has a lot to offer, but it didn’t fully land in my sweet spot.

On the positive side, I appreciated the unique narrative style. The shift from third person to first was such an effective choice, reflecting Beckett’s state of mind. From drifting outside himself to being more present in the reality of his marriage. The characters are also layered with quirks and flaws that made them feel real: Beckett’s search for self-image, Princess’s fixation on plastic surgery, and the quiet tension between them.

That said, the humor didn’t click for me, and I found the writing style a little too dry. At times, the characters’ decisions were frustrating, though I suspect that was the point because they’re written as complicated, imperfect people.

If you like literary fiction that digs into the messiness of relationships, self-image, and the quiet unraveling of an unhappy marriage, this might be for you. It’s sharp, complex, and true to life, even when the characters aren’t always likable.

I did not read Williams’s prize-winning Reproduction, but if the prose is anything like what I saw in this book I’m glad I didn’t attempt it. Not a good fit between the author and this reader. I found the writing—apparently intended to be clever, humorous, and sardonic—tedious and insufferable.

[Merrill Matthews · Rating 4 out of 5]

WOW! I loved this book! It’s super emotional and extremely moving. The style of writing also was really unique. Consider me a new Ian Williams fan!
The exploration of marriage and love and the ambiguous sides were really well portrayed and real. Highly recommend.

[Katie Welch · Rating 5 out of 5]

Beckett and Princess are instantly recognizable. Obsessed with homes and bodies, they live in a contemporary world where people renovate themselves for resale and being desirable is a blood sport. In fresh, exciting prose, You’ve Changed cracks open a modern marriage, and the scrambled contents are alternately hilarious and horrifying. I thoroughly enjoyed this funny, tragic tale.

[Moira · Rating 2 out of 5]

Listened as an audiobook. Perhaps I would have liked it more if I read a paper copy. I found the characters and story tedious.

[WolfT · Rating 2 out of 5]

An overly long satire about highly unlikable characters from an image obsessed generation.
While eliciting the occasional smile, it descended into tedium and I'm left questioning why I decided to finish it despite my earlier intention to abandon it.

[Anne Logan · Rating 2 out of 5]

The latest novel from Ian Williams titled You’ve Changed has been sitting on my shelf for over a year now, and when I had a break in my reading schedule I picked it up, eager to finally get to it. Why was I so excited? Because the premise was simple yet highly relatable; it’s about a marriage slowly breaking down, the couple drifting apart as they begin to explore new parts of themselves that they had previously suppressed. If it sounds ominous, that’s because it is. It’s not an uplifting book, yet it was a bestselling book in Canada, and was shortlisted for the Giller Prize. Williams is a highly lauded author too – you can check out a review of one of his previous books here and a summary of an author talk I attended with him here.

Plot Summary

Princess and Beckett have been married for a few years, and although very different, are relatively happy with one another. Princess is a fitness instructor, obsessed with improving not only her body, but her entire physical appearance. She is constantly getting procedures done, smoothing and shaping her body and face to meet an unknown standard. Beckett is baffled by these enhancements, slowly getting more and more uncomfortable with her relentless focus on her looks. But she has always been like this, and it isn’t until a couple that is newly pregnant and full of love and sexual desire come to visit, that Beckett and Princess begin to closely examine their own marriage in comparison to the one they just witnessed – maybe they weren’t as happy as they thought they were? Beckett loses his job soon after the book begins, and in an effort to re-focus Princess and prove his worth to her, he opens his own contracting business, with mixed results. While Princess is away, Beckett meets a man named Gluten (I know, this nickname really bugs me too) and they strike up a friendship with a twist. As Beckett begins to lose himself in this new relationship, Princess drifts even further away, until the tension and irritation between them reaches an inevitable climax. The question throughout the book remains – can their marriage survive these shifts?

My Thoughts

Williams employs an unusual technique where he writes out the recollections of the character in a lighter, italicized font and inserts it into the dialogue or present tense. I can’t replicate font colours here, so I’ve just bolded what appeared in the lighter font below to give you an idea:

“What are you doing? You weren’t supposed to exercise for at least another week. Your plan was to work the front desk. Your face was traumatized with filler. Gluten had asked, What’s your trauma? You shooed me away. I pointed with my pinky to the lounge area where I’d be waiting” (p. 204 of You’ve Changed by Ian Williams).

Certain words, sexual terms mostly, were also blacked out with a box across them, so you couldn’t actually see what the word was, but based on what was around it, you could easily figure it out. The italicized recollection I appreciated, but the blacking out of words just annoyed me. Why put them in? It felt gimmicky. And Williams is a poet so I appreciate his experimentation with words and form, but in a character-driven novel like this, it felt misplaced.

I’m still deciding if I liked this book or not, mainly because Princess and Beckett were a couple that I wasn’t really rooting for. I didn’t much care if they stayed together or not, and that’s because I didn’t think they were changing – their true nature was simply coming out, their conflicts were finally highlighting who they truly were, and this is why their marriage was suffering. I don’t think the author’s intention was to get us to like them; they both do horrible things to one another, and this only gets worse towards the end of the book. But I couldn’t understand their justifications for their behaviours, they felt baffling to me. I need to emotionally connect with the characters in a character-driven novel, and this just didn’t happen for me here.

It felt as if Princess and Beckett needed to cut their losses sooner and just break up, yet it’s always easy to make these pronouncements when on the outside of a relationship. And perhaps this was the point Williams was trying to make – when the relationship brings out only the worst in someone, (which happens in the case of this book), it’s obvious that it needs to end. Obvious to everyone outside looking in, but not as easy when you’re the one inside looking out.

Ian Williams, a celebrated poet before he ever turned to fiction, brings every ounce of that poetic discipline and mischief to his novel You’ve Changed, and the result is a marriage portrait that feels less like a conventional story and more like a long, exquisitely crafted prose poem about erosion. The book follows Princess and Beckett, a Vancouver couple whose union is already quietly rotting when the narrative begins, and Williams refuses to grant them the comfort of suspense, revelation, or redemption. Instead he dissects their days with the precision of a scalpel and the playfulness of a magician who knows the trick is in the misdirection. Because he is a poet, sentences glisten and snap like struck matches; ordinary moments of domestic friction are rendered in language so exact and musical that a fight over tofu or a silent inspection of armpit odor can feel as charged as any sex scene. Metaphors bloom and decay in the space of a clause, dialogue is trimmed to rhythmic fragments, and entire chapters shift into second-person address, a daring move that turns accusation into incantation and forces the reader into the uncomfortable skin of the accused spouse. That poetic instinct also explains the book’s deliberate absence of traditional plot momentum; Williams is more interested in texture than trajectory, in the way light falls on a failing relationship the same way it falls on leaves about to drop. The obsessions that define Princess and Beckett, her relentless surgical self-improvement and his drift into passive, plant-worshipping paralysis, are rendered with such linguistic flair that their unlikability becomes almost beside the point; we watch them less as people we must love or hate and more as specimens under the poet’s magnifying glass. For readers accustomed to suspense-driven fiction, the lack of forward thrust can feel frustrating, even static, yet that very stillness is the book’s quiet triumph: a poet’s refusal to hurry grief. At just over three hundred pages, You’ve Changed is slim, sharp, and stubbornly resistant to easy affection, but its sentences linger like perfume in an empty room long after the couple has gone. Three stars feels fair for pleasure alone, yet five stars feels equally fair for craft; Williams has written a poem disguised as a novel, and poets, as we know, rarely care whether you like them or simply recognize the skill with which they have broken your heart.

[Aly A · Rating 2 out of 5]

I picked this book up because the concept of people changing throughout a relationship (both physically and psychologically) in an "absurdly funny" way (as was marketed) appealed to me. I do enjoy social commentary and books that deal with heavier themes within marriages and mid-life identity crisis'.

However, this was a book about people I could not bring myself to care about and it was neither funny nor about love. I read in a different review that at its core this was a love story and I disagree. There was fondness between the characters, but as it unravelled, they were actively resentful of each other. Finding comfort in each other because it was familiar instead of wanted.

This would be fine if we cared about the characters, but everyone was unlikeable except maybe Viv. I did not care about Princess or her black fishing, body dysphoria or her husband who could barely stomach touching her but refused therapy. She felt like a caricature. Beckett was endearing in the beginning, a man who placed his value on his work and his obsession with home improvement mirrored Princess' obsession with 'people' improvement. His repressed feelings and questions about what makes him a man were all interesting and intriguing, however, mid way through I drastically lost interest in his hypocrisy and bizarre mid life crisis.

I wanted to like the concept, I really did. The first portion had me wanting more and the style was fascinating. The only thing I found myself liking in the second part was the swap in perspective. In terms of style, it is a captivating book. However, one major thing I need is to care about the characters. I don't have to like them, but I need to care about what happens to them. I did not care about Princess of Beckett. I was more curious about the cat and Viv's permit than Beckett's mental breakdown by the end.

[Barry Cull · Rating 3 out of 5]

The novel explores themes within contemporary marriage where males, especially, are forced to confront their identity, vis-à-vis gender, race, and sexual politics. The main characters, neither of whom is likable, are Beckett, a trad-husband and recently unemployed construction worker, and Princess, as the name would suggest, a narcissistic wife who is obsessed with improving her physical appearance. It is no coincidence that the extent to which she pursues this goal is absurd. The allusion throughout the book to Samuel Beckett's Waiting for Godot is a nod to the absurdist theatre to which this novel belongs.

Both main characters embody the book's focus on self-improvement. Beckett to become the ideal husband, more attracted to his wife, and Princess to become more physically attractive to her husband. Both will fail because, from his earliest days, Beckett is gay. He becomes aware of this fact through his dalliance with Cliff/Gluten, an Instagram influencer, who ironically, is the novel's only authentic character. Neither Beckett nor Princess succeeds in their mission, and in the end, they remain the same vapid characters they started as.

The bulk of the book's second half focuses on how the characters trash the marriage. Princess through serial acts of infidelity, and Beckett with his continued obsession with Gluten. There are final acts of brutality where each of their respective homes is trashed with urine and human feces. It is never really clear who is responsible for these acts; the reader is left to surmise.

I enjoyed the book's social commentary, but as a few have stated here, it's not my kind of book. This probably says something about the subject matter's relevance.

[Enid Wray]

I am DNF’ing this at approx 50% of the way through it. We should probably just say that “I am not the reader for this title” and move on.. But I’m not content with that.

While I haven’t felt like hurling the book across the room neither do I feel any compulsion to continue reading.

I neither like nor care about either Bekcett or Princess. Yes, we don’t have to like our characters, but… it helps if you have some kind of strong reaction to a character one way or the other. I don’t - they are both “meh”... As is their story of their unravelling relationship nothing more than “meh.” I just so don’t care.

Then there is the fact of the physical book itself. It’s very odd - and I started out wondering whether it’s just the copy that I have.

There are different colours of text and also “mis-alignments” in the line and sentence structure. They appear to be intentional, in which case call me stupid, because I can make no sense of what the intention is.

Then, in the second “part” of the book all of a sudden there are words blacked out. At first, I thought that perhaps it was a prior reader who had blacked them out as I could tell that the first few words blacked out were “ass” and “lesbian.” OK - somebody is prudish… except that “vagina” and some other words are not blacked out. Hmmm.

As it continues though it is not always obvious what the blacked out words are… and, the black outs are too perfect - they have clearly been printed as opposed to someone marking the pages up by hand with a black marker. So again, what is this all about? Again, call me stupid - but I can make no sense of this.

[Bettys Book Club · Rating 5 out of 5]

Calling all Sally Rooney fans, this one’s for you. If you swoon over awkward intimacy, razor-sharp banter, and emotionally stunted characters making bad decisions in beautiful prose, You’ve Changed is about to wreck you.

Meet Beckett, a middle-aged construction worker who’s convinced hard work can fix anything, including his slowly crumbling marriage. His wife, Princess, is a gym-obsessed beauty with a penchant for cosmetic enhancement and a deeply buried sense of discontent. They think they’re fine until a weekend with a disgustingly affectionate couple exposes the cracks in their foundation.
Princess suspects the issue is sex appeal. Beckett blames money. So she heads off for a BBL, and he dives into his business only to meet a man who is basically the human mirror of his wife. Cue an identity crisis with unexpected emotional plumbing.

By the time Princess returns, everything is up for demolition—desire, loyalty, and who they thought they were to each other.

You’ve Changed is a biting, humorous exploration of what happens when love stops being easy, and self-discovery begins mid-reno. Bring on the emotional sledgehammers!

[Mike Broderick · Rating 3 out of 5]

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an advance copy of this book.
This was odd from start to finish. I am not totally sure what the author was trying to accomplish. I think he wanted to convey a confused married man who was unsure of his marriage, his sexuality and his importance in the world. However, there did not seem to be a genuine conclusion to the problem.
His relationship with Gluten was at times fun and interesting and at other times too odd and too out there for me.
This is a modern novel in all of its presentation. It is dealing with themes that were not out there 20 years ago. It has a social media role that could not have been in books 10 years ago. And, it stomped all over generally accepted writing techniques.
I am in the middle with this book, I did not hate it but I also did not love it. Something kept me reading, but many moments had me wondering WTH I was reading.
I think some will like this book, while others may not even finish it.
I will sit on the fence with it and let others be the top contributors to value of this book.

[Alexandra Tower Nunez · Rating 4 out of 5]

This novel delivers a hilarious yet biting look at one of the biggest challenges in long-term relationships: outgrowing the people you were at the start. Insufferable in their own ways, Princess throws herself into self-improvement—through fitness, business ventures, and even some (okay, many) questionable surgical tweaks. Beckett wallows in self-pity, jeopardizes their finances, embarks on a shocking affair, and does nothing to actually strengthen their marriage.

The writing style is quirky and original (though the dialogue can be tricky to follow at times), and I couldn’t help but root for Princess the entire way. I only wish we had seen part of the story from her perspective.

Overall, it’s a witty, thought-provoking read—and a great reminder that life’s too short to put up with a Beckett or a Princess. It's a novel that brings forth questions about the practicality of marriage, whether soulmates are real or just people we're compatible with for a time, and how our personal history influences the choices we make. This book was just nominated for the Giller Prize long list so definitely worth checking out. Thank you to Random House Canada for the ARC!

CW: cheating, defacement, violence, betrayal, breakdown of a marriage, plastic surgery

Beckett and Princess have their tenuous marriage derailed when they host a happy couple. Princess is using body modification and excessive exercise to have control over her body and her agency. She struggles with her identity and her public image as a trainer. She is deeply hurt by Beckett’s growing sexual disinterest. Beckett is a tradesman who tries to show love by building. He is struggling with his identity after he loses his job and isn’t feeling attraction to his partner, who he is not keen on supporting through more plastic surgery. She leaves on a trip and he betrays her. This is a book about the dissolution of their marriage and their struggles with identity. A lot of the effects of this book made non sense in audio form. It was difficult and grim. The audio engineering effects didn’t make sense.

[Sydney · Rating 4 out of 5]

Princess and Beckett are content in their marriage. That is until married friends stay over and they get a glimpse into what a marriage could look like. Both become obsessed with making changes. Princess focuses her looks with surgeries and fillers. Beckett focuses on work and tries to discover his lost libido. What we get is a messy portrait of a failing marriage between two self absorbed people.

I enjoyed this one. I did not know where it was going and was invested despite both main characters having many unlikable qualities. I'm a sucker for quirky traits so a side character really made this book for me.

[Lindsay · Rating 3 out of 5]

I could tell this novel was written by a poet. It’s complex in the paragraphs but simple in plot.

A relationship is at a comfort point and naturally unravels through a series of events in the first half (with a few dream-like scenes), the second half is the hurt, anger and uncertainty of forgiveness that follows.

I’ll admit much of the style went over my head but I understood the relationship intricacy. The ending leaves things unresolved, but in this case, the ambiguity feels right.

[Catherine · Rating 3 out of 5]

I found the first half of this book (in third person) very slow to get through, but things really picked up when the narration shifted to first person for me.

I did not identify with, or especially care for, Princess and Beckett, but there are some interesting ideas to consider that come out of their struggling relationship and their individual renovations.

It can't be too bad because it left me thinking, but it is definitely not for everyone.

[Sage · Rating 3 out of 5]

While not a typical read for me, the character development was the most compelling part with a lot going on beneath the surface. The relationships were layered and ambiguous. Although, the narrative leaned a bit too far into that ambiguity at times and by the end, I was left feeling unsettled. If character-driven stories that don't tie everything up neatly are appealing to readers, they would likely enjoy this book.

[Hal · Rating 2 out of 5]

I guess I can see what the author was doing with all the stylistic choices in the text, and I would have found them more tolerable if this book was at least a little more interesting. I just felt like I wasn’t in on the story most of the time, like I was supposed to understand the tone but wasn’t getting it.

[Kyle · Rating 3 out of 5]

Wasn’t expecting this to be such a funny read, but then it was! Very playful language throughout- especially with the names- awkward/funny situations, questionable choices from characters that you just want to shout at, “No! Stop! Don’t do that!!…”. And also some really great storytelling that explores the constraints of broken relationships and the shapelessness of desire.

Much enjoyed!

There’s a weird fixation on Black ppl in this book that’s weird n not necessarily explained in its fullest. Yes I understand Princess is African born but white and that Kay come w complexities but the main character himself has a weird fixation on Black ppl too. It was unsettling in a way

[Kay · Rating 2 out of 5]

I'm listening to the audiobook and I'm really unclear on why bits of it periodically fade out. The story isn't really doing it for me, at least so far.

Will give it another bit and reassess.

On the good side, I did finish it.

However, I did not ever warm to the story and the audio weirdness, probably driven by the written weirdness (what the heck was the point about how the chapter “numbers” were written??) never became less than annoying.

I really enjoyed the first part, then it started to drag and then it improved a bit at the end. I understood, but did not like the crossing out of words. I wouldn’t recommend it, but the characters were somewhat interesting.
