(adj.) Very rich and providing great sensory pleasure ( Oxford English Dictionary )

(n.) A habitual drunkard ( Oxford English Dictionary )

Gabby and Emma have been best friends since primary school in Wales.

Emma has a stable job, a nice home, and has just got engaged.

Gabby has had a succession of disastrous one-night stands and awful jobs since drama school. . . and she has just been diagnosed with scurvy. She has one year until the wedding to pull herself together and prove to her friends and family that she can be a proper grown-up.

Described by Caitlin Moran as filthy, immoral and incredibly funny, Gabrielle Fernie's blog, loveisa4letterturd.com, catalogued her life as a struggling actress with a taste for gin. Here, in her first book, she shares her most raucous stories with eye-watering honesty. It is a laugh-out-loud account of a young woman trying to find her place in the world.

Readers love Lush:

Best book I have read for a very long time! Absolutely hilarious!

Thanks for making me laugh out loud on the tube like a weirdo and for making me miss my stop more than once

Moments of true absurdity partnered with genuinely touching stories of friendship in your twenties makes for an excellent read

I would recommend this book to anyone who's ever doubted themselves; as a little reminder that no matter how ridiculous your life seems to have become, Gabrielle Fernie's has always been hilariously and irrevocably far, far worse.
