Publisher Description
Nina does not have a drinking problem. She likes a drink, sure. But what 17-year-old doesn’t?
Nina’s mum isn’t so sure. But she’s busy with her new husband and five year old Katie. And Nina’s almost an adult after all.
And if Nina sometimes wakes up with little memory of what happened the night before, then her friends are all too happy to fill in the blanks. Nina’s drunken exploits are the stuff of college legend.
But then one dark Sunday morning, even her friends can’t help piece together Saturday night. All Nina feels is a deep sense of shame, that something very bad has happened to her…
A dark, funny - sometimes shocking - coming of age novel from one of the UK’s leading comedians. NINA IS NOT O.K. will appeal to fans of Caitlin Moran and Lena Dunham.
Customer Reviews
Hooked
I was hooked from the first page. The most enjoyable train journey ever, reading this book. I am not sure how you could not enjoy it if you have ever been young and had a rocky stage in your life. Deals with lots of issues and not just childhood ones. Well recommended
So disappointed
I wanted to love this book so much especially because it was so expensive! It was a real disappointment. Terrible swearing which added nothing to the story. It could have been told in a much better way. I didn't empathise and I so wanted to. It turned out to be another badly written "this is what I did when I was blasted book". Thank goodness I can read something decent now. I tried hard to like it.
