Saltwater- Jessica Andrews
‘Lucy’s transition from working class Sunderland to a London university is more overwhelming than she ever expected. As she works long shifts to make ends meet and navigates chaotic parties in East London warehouses and South Kensington mansions, she still feels like an outsider among her fellow students. When things come to a head, Lucy takes off for Ireland, piecing together family stories and trying to gain a sense of who she really is.’
Described as perfect for fans of Sally Rooney or Fleabag this is a lyrical and edgy exploration of relationships, feelings of love and the challenges of shifting class identity. Written in tiny chapters, it’s punchy, almost diary-like, with a really strong sense of who the characters are.
