'Thrillingly honest, funny, incisive and hopeful, this is the perfect gateway into a discussion on mental health' Marian Keyes

'Truly one of the most powerful books about mental health that I've ever read.' Daisy Buchanan

One of the Independent's top ten millennial memoirs of 2019

How not to be good? Let me list the ways...

Are you a woman? Do you make to-do lists to stop you losing your mind? Have you ever cried in the toilets at work, had a meltdown in the supermarket, or gone off the rails at a hen party?

And have you ever been saved from any of the above by your truly brilliant friends?

If you've answered 'yes' to any of these questions, then this is the book for you. A moving, funny and brutally honest memoir of one woman's millennial misadventures, The To-Do List and Other Debacles follows Amy Jones on her journeys through friendship, marriage and mental health disasters in a story that's as relatable as it is riotous.

A madcap tale of love and friendship - and weight loss and anti-depressants - and a million to-do lists from Amy Jones, acclaimed writer at The Pool, perfect for fans of The Wrong Knickers and Everything I Know About Love.
