Hot Mess
Hot Mess: Bridget Jones for a new generation | Lucy Vine
4 posts | 3 read | 6 to read
Hot Mess [n.] - someone attractive, who is often in disarray. Have you ever shown up to Sunday brunch still smelling of Saturday night? Chosen bed, Netflix and pizza over human contact? Stayed in your mould-ridden flat because it's cheap? Meet your spirit animal, Ellie Knight. Her life isn't turning out exactly as she planned. She hates her job, her friends are coupling up and settling down, and her flatmates are just plain weird. Some people might say she's a hot mess but who really has their sh*t together anyway? For fans of Fleabag and Girls, this is a fresh and funny coming-of-age story with a single-girl heroine that will speak to millennials everywhere. Everyone is talking about Hot Mess - the hilarious laugh-out-loud Bridget Jones for a new generation: 'More lifestyle-affirming than Bridget Jones' Sarah Knight, author of The Life Changing Magic of Not Giving a F*ck 'If you love dirty jokes, dating horror stories and hilarious dialogue, this book is for you' Emma Gannon, author and podcast host of Ctrl Alt Delete 'I laughed and sighed with recognition as I turned every page' Daisy Buchanan, author of How To Be a Grown-Up

This book really made me laugh and I had fun talking to its author for the latest Brit Lit Podcast episode.

I loved this book. The first half is laugh out loud funny -- perfect for the plane journey I was reading it on -- then it gets more sad and serious. If you love British chick Lit this one is for you, though it's not chick Lit exactly. And if you've ever been single and 30, or the only singleton in a group of friends, I doubly recommend it! It's available on American eBook and in all the usual formats in the UK. Highly rec'd as a beach read!

LA_Mead Cool! Going to have to check this one out! 7y
