Adult life is hard. Send help.

Ivy Edwards is thirty-one years old, funny, shameless, and a bit of a romantic.

She's also currently trying not to cry in the office toilet.

Partly because she's just run out of money for fags. A bit because her mum continues to annoy her. Definitely not because she's just been dumped by her fiancé.

With her London life in shambles and her family miles away in the Welsh valleys, Ivy doesn't actually feel like she belongs anywhere.

At least, she has her friends - and a bottle of vodka.

Embarking on a journey of singlehood, Ivy is about to discover that sometimes, having your life fall apart can be surprisingly fun.

Must read!

I loved this book! Read 200 pages the first day I downloaded it. I laughed, I cried and could totally relate to the characters. It really is a must read!

An honest and humorous account of heartbreak

I’ll start by saying I loved this book. It was an honest and humorous account of heartbreak and loss. Ivy is troubled, messy and occasionally unsympathetic but it’s those traits that make her such a believable and relatable character. The book deals with some depressing themes and it’s thanks to Tovey’s warm and humours writing that the book never feels anything other than a complete pleasure to read.
