About this listen
Nina does not have a drinking problem. She likes a drink, sure. But what 17-year-old doesn't?
Nina's mum isn't so sure. But she's busy with her new husband and five-year-old Katie. Nina's almost an adult, after all. And if Nina sometimes wakes up with little memory of what happened the night before, then her friends are all too happy to fill in the blanks.
Nina's drunken exploits are the stuff of college legend. But then one dark Sunday morning, even her friends can't help piece together Saturday night. All Nina feels is a deep sense of shame, that something very bad has happened to her....
A dark, funny, sometimes shocking coming-of-age novel from one of the UK's leading comedians. Nina Is Not OK will appeal to fans of Caitlin Moran and Lena Dunham.

Nina Is Not Okay.
I reflected and resonated with this book in a way that was both horrible and beautiful. I found it in perfect timing. It was both hilarious and touching. I listened to this book in under 24 hours and I have never done that with a book before. I love Nina, she is a character that I really feel like I know.

Uncomfortable but brilliant
I wasn’t sure about this at first, I thought it might be a bit too ‘teen’ (I’m 52) but then I loved it. And felt shame, concern, exasperation, and compassion for Nina. It made my eyes leak a bit too. Brilliant.

Life changing
I won't lie, this is a difficult read when it cuts close to the bone. But it is also a comfort. Made me reevaluate a lot about my own life. A raw look at alcoholism, friendship, family, and modern culture. I loved it.

Wow!!!
I was somewhat unsure for the first couple of chapters but so glad that I continued to listen as it was utterly amazing. Easily one of the best books I have ever listened to.

Just loved it.
A story of pain of loss. Of hitting the bottom and climbing up. Of realising that to call someone boring is to in the end a compliment.

a truly brilliant book
this is honestly brilliant, but be warned there is a lot of graphic details - I did have to have a pause from it, as the content is about rape and does not shy away from the subject at all. however, it is handled very well and deserves to be listened to!!

Heartbreakingly Beautiful
Trigger warning: this book has to deal with heavy topics such as alchoholism and rape.
Made me cry and want to claw out of my own skin at times with raw emotion. A very important read for women of all ages, a lesson to mothers and daughters everywhere.

fantastic book. a must read.
a brilliant breath of fresh air. Sadly ringing home, the story is beautiful and ruthless and told with superb authenticity by Shappi.
it's not an easy subject but I'd say it's essential reading.
