Summary

Aisling is 28, and she’s a complete...Aisling. She lives at home in Ballygobbard (or Ballygobackwards, as some gas tickets call it) with her parents and commutes to her good job at PensionsPlus in Dublin. Aisling goes out every Saturday night with her best friend, Majella, who is a bit of a hames (she’s lost two phones already this year - Aisling has never lost a phone). They love hoofing into the Coors Light if they’re 'Out' or the vodka and Diet Cokes if they’re 'Out Out'.

Aisling spends two nights a week at her boyfriend John’s. He’s from down home and was kiss number 17 at her 21st. But Aisling wants more. She wants the ring on her finger. She wants the hen with the willy straws. She wants out of her parents’ house, although she’d miss Mammy turning on the electric blanket like clockwork and Daddy taking her car 'out for a spin' and bringing it back full of petrol.

When a week in Tenerife with John doesn’t end with the expected engagement, Aisling calls a halt to things, and soon she has surprised herself and everyone else by agreeing to move into a three-bed in Portobello with stylish Sadhbh from HR and her friend, the mysterious Elaine. Newly single and relocated to the big city, life is about to change utterly for this wonderful, strong, surprising and funny girl, who just happens to be a complete Aisling.

Loved it. Everyone knows an Aisling!

Such a great book. Adored Aisling. Such a genuinely nice Irish girl and I think so many of us know an Aisling or we are her. So funny. Lots of nodding and agreeing throughout this and the performance was excellent. I would love to hear a version where an actual Aisling, Aisling Bea did the narrative but that's no negative reflection at all on this performance which was spot on. Highly recommended...even for someone like me who normally doesn't go for books like this.

Brilliant

Brilliant listen, the narrator is fabulous with the accents and holding the emotion of Aisling. I was completely tied in and honestly felt every emotion aisling did and that was from only listening to it in the car the last two weeks!

A Great read!

It’s such a nice change to have a modern, real life story with very realistic story lessons and lessons!
Funny, witty and makes you think about how much we do take other people’s impressions much more seriously, rather than our own!
Well done ladies, such a “grand” story! I hope Amy reads your next one.

Laughed out loud

A wonderfully read feel good book. Not the best story but touches on some controversial topics. Nonetheless, very funny.
