A frank, relatable and outrageously funny YA novel full
of heart, friendship and the utter chaos of first relationships,
perfect for fans of Sex Education, Holly Bourne and Ciara
Smyth.

empowering novel.' - Inis Magazine, Children's Books
Ireland

'The relationship between Rose and her boyfriend Joel is skilfully
done... their struggles feel believable and nuanced.' -
The Irish Times
Warning: This book contains frank content of a sexual nature.
When Rose decides to lose her virginity to her gorgeous, sweet
boyfriend, Joel, the scene is set for a major milestone. Except,
when it comes to it, they can't seem to make it ... happen.
Rose's 'epic sex fail' freaks her out. Isn't everyone else having
an easy, fun, painless time?!
The problem is, she's already
told her best friends she's done it. And, worse still, while
Rose unpicks her health issue, her relationship with Joel starts
to crack under the pressure.
But it turns out sex is not
always straightforward for others either, and Rose soon becomes
the accidental confidante of cringe. Maybe bodies and relationships
are as weird and unique as we are? And maybe what she really
needs to lose is shame?
Mean Girls level quotability
and a loveable cast of down-to-earth characters reminiscent
of Derry Girls and The Inbetweeners. A wildly
entertaining, refreshing book with an outrageous sense of humour,
a highly relatable story and an empowering take on friendships,
teen relationships and personal growth.
With her counselling
background, debut author Rebecca Anderson embraces vulnerability
and opens honest, shame-busting conversations about our bodies,
healthy relationships, and awkward or challenging first (and
future!) times.
