About this listen

Emma and her friends are about to turn 30, and for Emma it's a defining moment. Defined, that is, by her having achieved none of the things she'd imagined she would. She's never jumped out of a plane, hasn't met the man she's going to marry or snogged anyone famous. As Emma hurtles towards her thirtieth, she discovers, with hilarious consequences, that some of them are trickier to tick off than she'd thought....

I really enjoyed the narration and the story. It was a bit fluffy in parts but generally likeable characters and believable story for the most part. I would read from this author and narrator again.
