The debut novel from the bestselling and award-winning comedian Sara Pascoe. A funny, bittersweet, and deeply observed story about growing into yourself, love, and the effort to feel normal.

The book blends humor with sharp, honest insights into what it means to be a woman today, balancing laughter with moments of quiet, painful reflection.

Readers describe it as acutely observed, relatable, and funny, with a perspective that feels both engaging and intimate. The voice has been called an exciting and tremendously promising new contribution, delivering a narrative that is at once funny and moving.
