Infos

The must-have memoir from Emmy Award winning writer of Succession, Georgia Pritchett. 'Order her book. That's an order.' Miranda Hart 'Brimming with wit and honesty' Nina Stibbe 'Fantastically entertaining' Marina Hyde 'I absolutely bloody loved this book. Funny, relatable, easy to read, deep, shallow and everything in between.' Philippa Perry One of Stylist's Best Memoirs for Summer 2021 Georgia Pritchett knows a thing or two about anxiety. From worrying about the monsters under her bed as a child (Were they comfy enough?), to embracing womanhood, (One way of knowing you have crossed from girlhood to womanhood is that men stop furtively masturbating at you from bushes and start shouting things at you from cars. It's a beautiful moment) worry has accompanied her at every turn. This memoir is a joyful reflection on just how to live - and sometimes even thrive (sometimes not) - with anxiety. 'Incredibly funny - if you're a super-sensitive, anxious person, you will relate HARD. Whilst laughing hysterically.' Caitlin Moran 'I am SO excited about this book!' Richard Osman 'Georgia Pritchett is a singularly hilarious person. Her book is a delightful and perfect reflection of her. It's tenderness sneaks up on you and really packs a punch. What a magnificent read!'' Julia Louis Dreyfus

Rezensionen

A beautiful, endearing book that feels very relatable for anyone living with anxiety.

A book that keeps you laughing, even when it breaks your heart.

Brimming with wit and honesty, these vignettes are the perfect nourishment for an anxious world.

A fantastically entertaining and surprising book. I knew I would laugh - and I did, several times on every page. She is hilarious - exuberantly funny, wickedly funny, wryly funny, darkly funny. All the funnies. But this book really shook my heart too. To read it is to meet the kindest, warmest, most wisecracking companion you could hope for. Georgia Pritchett is the new friend we all need right now.

Georgia Pritchett is a singularly hilarious person. Her book is a delightful and perfect reflection of her. It's tenderness sneaks up on you and really packs a punch. What a magnificent read!'

I'm SO excited about this.

Revealing, but also spare and funny and wise and moving.

It's packed with warmth, tenderness, humour, deep honesty and is exactly the inspiration we need now.

An amazing and funny and heartbreaking and insightful memoir.

Put simply, I love Georgia as a writer and a woman. Funny, moving, insightful, vulnerable. A brave book and a brilliant read.
