Resumen del Editor

Move over, Georgia Nicolson. Say goodbye to Geek Girl. Meet Emma Nash.

When 16-year-old Emma is ghosted by love of her life Leon Naylor, she does what any normal girl would do. She spends the entire summer lurking in her bedroom, avoiding all human contact (and the shower), surrounded by the collection of Chewits wrappers she saved from packs Leon gave her, back when he actually acknowledged her existence....

But seeing Leon suddenly 'in a relationship' on Facebook with the perfect Anna spurs Emma into action, and she embarks on a mission to make positive changes to her life (or 'edits', if you will), vowing to use the Internet for more than obsessively stalking Leon's activities! Instead she will use it for good and noble causes like finding someone who will actually be nice to her and recording her findings for the rest of the world to see (i.e., BFF Steph and her mum) on her new Editing Emma blog.

But Emma soon discovers her habit is harder to break than she first thought - turns out she's not the only one editing herself online (thank you, Tinder, for finding her mum's profile - age 35, really?) and that life through an Instagram filter isn't always what it's cracked up to be. But it could be worse: she could have outed her best friend, accidentally chatted up a 12-year-old boy and revealed to the world why Leon Naylor is worth no girl's time or virginity.... Oh no, wait, that's exactly what happened....

Reseñas de la Crítica

" Editing Emma was over all too quickly for me as reading it felt like hanging out with one of my most entertaining fiends. Emma's inner-thoughts were a painfully funny romp through a bundle of boy disasters and friend dramas, and it was packed with hilariously accurate observations totally nailed in single sentences. Loved it." (Beth Garrod, author of Superawkward)

"A joy to read - so smart and funny." (Perdita Cargill, coauthor of Waiting for Callback)

"Many genuine laugh-out-loud moments." (Tom Ellen, coauthor of Lobsters)
