I don’t know, this book has a very truck driver/farmer language for the first part of it and I sadly don’t find it funny or youngster. The fact that 78% of people found it funny is maybe because they didn’t understand the level of oppression Grace felt from her anxiety. It was properly a disease and I maybe would have liked to read about it at 18-20 years old when I was feeling that I was the only insecure person alive and all the other girls were so confident. But at 27 years old I’m too mature for this, I’ve done my drama LOOOOONG ago and I’m a confident and emotionally stable woman for the most part, so I just felt sad for Grace to see how much some people struggled in their past but if I read and finished the all book I felt so would have got sucked in a vortex of insanity. So I stopped at page 257. I really love that Grace was so open to talk about this things but I do think there is a marketing issue. The book is for younger people 16-20 but the language is for adults.

Although I skipped the politics (I don't know anything about UK politicians and I don't care either) the rest of the book was really nice to read. Sometimes I got a feeling of "ok grace, I get it, chill" but I applaud her for talking so openly about stuff like masturbation and rejection. Will look her up from now on, I'm quite interested in other stuff she has done
