Are We Nearly There Yet?

'Laugh-out-loud funny. Truly, the Bridget Jones for our generation' Louise O'Neill

Alice is turning thirty and is stuck in a rut. Her friends are all coupling up and settling down, while she's still working as a temp, trying (and failing) not to shag her terrible ex, getting thrown out of clubs, and accidentally sexting her boss...

She decides to throw caution to the wind and jets off on a round-the-world adventure to #FindTheFun and find herself. Of course, she's no more likely to find the answer to true happiness on the beach in Thailand than she is at the electric beach in Tooting, but at least in Thailand there's paddleboard yoga.

Can Alice find happiness on her travels? Or is she more likely to lose herself all over again...?

'Utterly addictive and utterly charming...her best yet' Daisy Buchanan

'Warning: read this book and you will doubtless snort with laughter in inappropriate public places. Quite simply, #brilliant' Ella Dove

I absolutely loved reading Are We Nearly There Yet? When I read that ‘if you liked Bridget Jones you will love this!’ and just had to read it, and I am so glad I did.
Alice is very much like the modern-day version of Bridget Jones, even the comfy underwear ha-ha. Everyone around her is growing up, getting married, starting a family. But Alice has just turned 30 and her life is the same as it has always been, no boyfriend, temping jobs and living with Eva, her best friend, nothing has changed.
So when Eva gets a boyfriend and announces her pregnancy Alice wants to just get away from it all knowing that she will probably not even have somewhere to live very soon.

Alice decides to travel around the world and what fun and not so much fun she had along the way.
This was simply too funny, it made me laugh out loud but also made me think about my life too.
