Description

Comedian Iain Stirling knows a lot about f*cking up. And he's ready to share.

From the brilliantly funny voice behind the BAFTA-winning smash hit Love Island comes a scrutinising dissection of millennial life, giving the finger to 'adulthood' (whatever that means) along the way.

Throughout life millennials have been taught that they are perfect and should live a perfect life. They've been told, whatever happens, don't screw up. So is it any wonder they have acquired an image of being self-obsessed, work-shy, mollycoddled egomaniacs? Iain argues that beneath this facade is a misunderstood generation with a crippling fear of failure. And it's time for this to change.

Provocative and full of his razor-sharp wit, Not F*cking Ready to Adult is Iain's guide to what life is really like for millennials and how they can navigate it better.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
