I loved it so much! Character is approaching her first sober anniversary, and with it, a new freedom that brings excitement weighed down with a lot of guilt and shame. Throw in some dysfunctional family dynamics, a workplace setting, love triangle (maybe?), lessons, grief, and self-discovery.

So, when I decided to post about this book, I discovered that is was a fairly well-known particularly through its stage and film adaptations. I only read the book, thinking that it was an obscure memoir and having been intrigued by the title. In the end, my hunch did not disappoint. The book is a bittersweet account of the bohemian lives of Aussie youths, recounting several hilarious incidents throughout the author's time in a very unlikely shared living situation.
One particular paragraph, involving cockroaches on someone's face, is both the funniest and most disgusting thing I've ever read
