I
was eyeing this one up when it sat on the bestseller shelves, way
back when I worked in a bookshop, and I finally dived into it on the
way home from a recent sunny holiday – when I was bracing myself
for a hard landing home, and felt I was most in need of a positive
f*cking change.
The
hype is real. This book is truly splendid, and borderline
revolutionary. What’s funny is, I had been warned by friends that
the amount of F-bombs on each page was a little jarring to begin
with, and you had to get past that to enjoy the read – and y’all
know I love swearing, insane amounts, but that turned out to be true!
Fortunately after about a third of the book, the F-words became just
white noise in my brain and I could properly absorb the important,
brilliant messages Sarah was laying out perfectly for her readers.
Now brb, making a F*ck Budget...
This
hardback is FILTHY because I was lugging it around and consulting it
on the go for some time!

Friendship Fails of Emma Nash, by Chloe
Seager.
Now
she’s in the sixth form, Emma’s expecting life to be a breeze but
when her best friend Steph suddenly has a boyfriend who she’s
spending all her time with, Emma’s not sure what to do with
herself.
So Emma’s got a mission in mind: making new friends. Signing up for the school fashion show seems like the perfect opportunity. Although soon, through a series of mishaps that are absolutely not Emma’s fault (well, sort of), her world is teetering on the edge of disaster again.

Yes,
I’ve already blogged about this YA but that
was for the blog tour, okay? Now it’s time to get my review on!
Chloe
Seager’s writing style and character creations are brilliant and
believable. The stories she tells of Emma Nash and her pals are all
hilarious and at times cringe-inducing, and while I wouldn’t
necessarily immediately elect to be friends with the crazy Emma (if
it were up to me, that is – it sounds like she’d stalk me and
post cat pics on my timeline then declare us besties before I’d
even caught on), I can definitely relate to her and I have high hopes
for her fashion career and future friendship endeavours.
This book was the perfect follow up to Editing Emma, one of my 2017 reads!
Friendship Fails of Emma Nash by Chloe SeagerEmma Nash is possibly one of the most relatable characters I've come across in YA. Her life is really just a series of comic catastrophes, tragic romantic escapades and...friendship fails.
