  • Filthy

    £9.99

    Joss has never had sex. But suddenly, it feels like everyone else has. From dolphins to bonobos to her annoyingly confident older sister Edith, the entire natural world seems to be getting some, and Joss is starting to wonder what she’s missing. The problem? No one actually explains how any of it works. And David Attenborough has a lot to answer for. Then she meets Griff. Mysterious. Hot. Not from around here. And, most shocking of all, he doesn’t see her as ‘vanilla’. Determined not to be clueless, Joss turns to the only educational resource that seems readily available: the internet. But late-night ‘research’ comes with unexpected consequences. Embarrassing ones. Ones that might just scare off the best thing that’s ever happened to her. Warm, hilarious and painfully relatable, this is a story about curiosity, confidence, and figuring out what you actually want, not what the rest of the world makes look easy.
