Summary
‘I am so glad I read this book. It’s like an old friend who will cheer you up and make you feel a bit better about all those times you’ve made a twit of yourself.’ Alex Bell, author of Frozen Charlotte
‘Great for fans of Holly Bourne’ Katy Birchall, author of The It Girl
‘According to Netflix, this is NOT how my teenage life is supposed to look.’When Emma Nash is ghosted by love of her life Leon Naylor, she does what any girl would do – spends the summer avoiding all human contact, surrounded by the Chewit wrappers he left behind.
Seeing Leon suddenly ‘in a relationship’ on Facebook, however, spurs Emma into action. She vows to use the internet for good (instead of stalking Leon’s social media),chronicling her adventures on her new Editing Emma blog.
But life online doesn’t always run smoothly.
From finding her mum’s Tinder profile, to getting catfished and accidentally telling the entire world why Leon Naylor is worth no girl’s virginity… Surely nothing else could go wrong?!

First-love, funny, friendship, family, forthright.
This book was the perfect mood-booster, and I loved the performance by Charlie Sanderson for the audiobook.
I liked the way the story was told, the personal blog posts, it really felt like I was in Emma's head. And I thought the story was great - a dramatic tale of friendship, first love, and self discovery. It's realistic, slightly cringey at times, and it doesn't shy away from what being a teen is like. It really takes a long hard look at how you find yourself.
Emma pretty much goes into full on meltdown when she discovers that her boyfriend is now with someone else, and oh man, have we not all been there? When I was younger I thought love, and the person I loved at the time, were the be all and end all. I really loved how sex-positive the book was, because it's something that should absolutely be explored more in YA.
I did like how the book wasn't just about Emma's drama - it was that of her friends and family too. Despite blogging for herself, at herself, she took in a lot of what was generally going on around her and really seemed to care for her family and friends (even if she didn't always show it).
I honestly wish I had read this book as a teen.

A read for all ages.
NEVER HAVE I EVER meets A YOUNG BRIDGET JONES.
Emma Nash is a character I could completely relate to. This book captures the anguish and hilarity of teenage life. No matter the decade we were born, school life socks us sore.
The world of social media for young people in this generation is, frighteningly eye opening, yet this book shows that some things never change. It incorporates lifelong friendships and fisrt love experiences that inspire nostalgia.
I'm a person who relives my glory days vicariously through books, especially as I'm a forever brat pack fan. I loved the pop culture references, particularly to the Gilmore Girls.
I highly recommend this book and was delighted to find another Emma Nash tale!
