Go Lightly
Go Lightly: A Novel | Brydie Lee-Kennedy
1 post | 1 read | 1 to read
"Ada is 26 and having a grand time just trying to figure it all out. An Australian living in London, she ekes out a living as a poorly-paid cabaret performer and part-time temp. And yet she can't imagine wanting to be any other age. Ada's a seeker, a perpetually moving ball of excess. Every night is an opportunity to be thrilled and every morning a chance to recount it to her friends. So when Ada falls for Sadie and Stuart at the same time she doesn't see any reason not to pursue them both. But as the responsibilities of adult life begin to encroach-bills, family, more bills-and Sadie and Stuart find out about one another, the people around Ada start trying to root her in place. How long can she resist the inevitable? Spiky, hilarious, and painfully relatable, Go Lightly is a love letter to girls who say yes without fear and are always last to leave the party. Ada is a Holly Golightly for the age of DMs, reveling in her own youth and sexuality while reckoning with a serious case of main character syndrome. This is a remarkable debut from a boldly talented new voice"--

Go Lightly is everything I hoped each of Sally Rooney‘s novels would be, a millennial novel that actually captures the realities of millennial life. It‘s wry and self-deprecating and insightful – like if Rooney had a sense of humour and used quotation marks for speech.
