Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

A blisteringly sharp exploration of self-acceptance, friendship and finding connection in the most unexpected places.

Nicki - 30ish, care worker living in Brighton - is scrolling for her next hook up. A difficult home life, a job that's going nowhere, she seeks solace in random encounters.

Amber - 17, college student, lost - desperately needs someone to notice her.
She creates 'Kevin', a fake dating profile for a man in his thirties.
Neither Nicki nor 'Kevin' has any idea what they're about to get into.

They quickly match, and an unlikely friendship develops, giving each other the validation they both sorely need.

But can you ever truly connect when one of you is a liar?

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

'An emotive insight into the consequences of bruising loneliness, Nothing Serious is a powerful tale of a skewed but hopeful friendship through which two very different women find the courage to survive.' (Amy Beashel, author of Spilt Milk)

'I loved Emma's characters, they felt real and balanced, flawed and relatable.' (Lisa Hall, bestselling author of Between You and Me)

The ending

I enjoyed this book until the end. Hoping for a sequel! Both of the girls stories were very sad it would be good to know if they turn things around.
