My Mess Is a Bit of a Life: Adventures in Anxiety

Review Put simply, I love Georgia as a writer and a woman. Funny, moving, insightful, vulnerable. A brave book and a brilliant read. -- Miranda Hart 'This book has enough dose of humour to be classified as a natural SSRI antidepressant.' -- Cecile ― NetGalley I'm SO excited about this. -- Richard Osman 'Had me laughing out loud, and then had me close to tears.' -- Alison ― NetGalley A fantastically entertaining and surprising book. I knew I would laugh - and I did, several times on every page. She is hilarious - exuberantly funny, wickedly funny, wryly funny, darkly funny. All the funnies. But this book really shook my heart too. To read it is to meet the kindest, warmest, most wisecracking companion you could hope for. Georgia Pritchett is the new friend we all need right now. -- Marina Hyde 'A book that will stay with me for a long time . most definitely one I'll be recommending to everyone.' -- @lockdown.reads A book that keeps you laughing, even when it breaks your heart. -- Sara Pascoe 'If you are alive and have ever felt anxiety. If you have quirks that make you, you. If you have ever been overlooked because of who you are, you may find a piece of yourself in Georgia Pritchett's memoir.' -- @the_covetous_reader Georgia Pritchett is a singularly hilarious person. Her book is a delightful and perfect reflection of her. It's tenderness sneaks up on you and really packs a punch. What a magnificent read!' -- Julia Louis Dreyfus Brimming with wit and honesty, these vignettes are the perfect nourishment for an anxious world. -- Nina Stibbe This is one of the funniest, most inspiring books I have read in a long time - I demand that Georgia write three more volumes immediately - we NEED them! I was a mess after reading this beautiful book - I never knew that I could belly-laugh, weep, snort and howl all at the same time. I am going to buy a crate-load of copies and make sure that everybody I know reads it. -- Mel Giedroyc 'The most fantastic memoir I have ever read.' -- Nic ― NetGalley This is a joy of a book. So personal and so funny, Georgia Pritchett writes deft sentences that can move from devastating to uproarious on the turn of a word. I haven't been so affected by a book in ages: I want to give it a big hug of thanks. -- Armando Iannucci An off-the-wall, concise, whimsical, honest, painful and laugh-out-loud joy. -- Rachel Joyce So funny, so insightful, so moving. Just gorgeous'. -- Jenny Colgan Product Description 'Order her book. That's an order.' Miranda Hart 'Brimming with wit and honesty' Nina Stibbe 'Fantastically entertaining' Marina Hyde 'I absolutely bloody loved this book. Funny, relatable, easy to read, deep, shallow and everything in between.' Philippa Perry One of Stylist's Best Memoirs for Summer 2021 Multi-award-winning television writer and producer Georgia Pritchett knows a thing or two about anxiety. From worrying about the monsters under her bed as a child (Were they comfy enough?), to embracing womanhood, (One way of knowing you have crossed from girlhood to womanhood is that men stop furtively masturbating at you from bushes and start shouting things at you from cars. It's a beautiful moment) worry has accompanied her at every turn. This memoir is a joyful reflection on just how to live - and sometimes even thrive (sometimes not) - with anxiety. 'Incredibly funny - if you're a super-sensitive, anxious person, you will relate HARD. Whilst laughing hysterically.' Caitlin Moran 'I am SO excited about this book!'
