Bodies

***Irish debut writers to look out for in 2024*** IRISH TIMESYou were everything I ever wanted.Johnny was my first. I was seventeen and I was only brave enough to talk to him after I'd had three vodkas. He was only brave enough to kiss me when no-one else was around.Dave was different. We didn't go out or see friends. We were each other's world. Dave was all I needed. We were toxic before it became fashionable.Kyle was my best friend. And that was the problem. Or at least that's what he said was the problem. Because friends can hook up but they can't date.Adam was meant to be some harmless fun. I met him in a hotel and he was wearing an Adidas tracksuit. Casual but cute. He was anything but harmless.And then I met You.And things went from bad to worse.Readers are OBSESSED with Bodies:'Raw, dark and unflinching' ????? reader review'Such a powerful read and one I couldn't put down' ????? reader review'Loved, loved, loved it [...] I don't want to spoil the story - go and read it for yourself' ????? reader reviewSpeaks the truth of [...] how it is to be a woman in a man's world' ???? reader review'A hate letter to the type of men who make it their life's mission to damage, use and abuse women' ???? reader review'Heartbreaking, dark and thrilling in equal measures' ???? reader review
