Description

Comedian Iain Stirling knows a lot about f*cking up. And hes ready to share.
From the brilliantly funny voice behind the BAFTA-winning smash hit Love Island comes a scrutinising dissection of millennial life, giving the finger to adulthood (whatever that means) along the way.

Throughout life millennials have been taught that they are perfect and should live a perfect life. Theyve been told, whatever happens, dont screw up. So is it any wonder they have acquired an image of being self-obsessed, work-shy, mollycoddled egomaniacs Iain argues that beneath this facade is a misunderstood generation with a crippling fear of failure. And its time for this to change.

Provocative and full of his razor-sharp wit, Not F*cking Ready to Adult is Iains guide to what life is really like for millennials and how they can navigate it better.
