Hungover, underpaid and overwhelmed, this isn' t where Penny expected to be as she reached her late twenties. A sharp, smart and witty look at adulting - Fleabag meets Sorrow and Bliss. I exist on validation from emotionally unavailable men, biscuits, and cheap wine, and it' s easier to get off with Max than a Tiny Teddy. Penny can' t help but compare herself to her friends. Annie is about to be a senior associate at her law firm, Bec has just got engaged, Leo is dating everyone this side of the Yarra, and Penny is just . . . waiting. Waiting for Max, her on-again, off-again boyfriend, to allow her to spend the night, waiting for the promotion she was promised, waiting for her Valium to kick in. Waiting for her real life to start. Out of excuses and sick of falling behind, Penny challenges herself to turn things around. She' s going to make it work with Max, impress her tyrannical boss, quit seeing her useless therapist, remember to water her plants, and stop having panic attacks in the work toilets. But soon she' s back to doomscrolling on Instagram, necking bottles of Aldi' s finest sauvignon blanc, and criticising herself with renewed vigour and loathing. When her goals seem further away than ever, she has to wonder: when bad habits feel so good, how do you trust what' s good for you? ' Genevieve Novak will inevitably be compared to other authors, but the truth is, she is herself and herself alone - and that' s a good thing. Funny, biting, vulnerable and unflinching, Novak' s novel is like an ocean dip: a bit salty, very refreshing. ' Lauren Sams
