5.0

O’Donoghue writes with an honest and hilarious tone that I come to expect from Irish writers. This book is messy, complicated and authentic. I feel like I can recognise why some of the reviews of this book are mixed but I believe this book captures early adulthood perfectly. I will be thinking about this book for a long time.
