If you’re looking for something quick and easy which centres a chaotic mother-daughter relationship, with a hefty dose of millennial humour, then consider Emma Jane Unsworth’s Grown Ups.

Jenny is a writer who lives most of her life online, obsessively curating Instagram captions and rationing out her likes so that she doesn’t come across the wrong way. She’s infatuated with lifestyle influencers, and of course unsatisfied with her own life in comparison. Everything goes even more to hell when she’s let go from her job and her mam rocks up to live with her. 

Unsworth includes things like texts and emails within the story, which I do always enjoy. Unfortunately I found Jenny a little too off-putting and selfish and the humour just too cringey at times. I preferred it when the book ventured into more serious places, though it didn’t happen too often.

Just a bit superficial, and lord knows how Jenny has any friends left.
