Nina didn't plan to spend her thirtieth birthday in jail, yet here she is in her pajamas, locked in a holding cell. There's no Wi-Fi, no wine, no carbs, and no one to celebrate with. Unfortunately, it gives Nina plenty of time to reflect on her screwed-up life. She just broke up with her fiancé, and now has to move back into her childhood home to live with her older brother and their uptight, traditional Indian mother. She's an underpaid freelance journalist who wants to write about things like race and politics, but instead pens puff pieces. And her friends are too busy with their own lives to hang out with her. Just as Nina falls into despair, she discovers a book to read: How to Fix Your Shitty Life by Loving Yourself. It must be destiny. With nothing left to lose (clearly), Nina makes a life-changing decision to embark on a self-love journey. By her next birthday, she's going to find thirty things she loves about herself.

Okay, I admit it, I didn't do it. Yet. This is normal, right? I mean, just because everyone I know has talked like they've already done it doesn't mean that they're telling the truth, right? It's not like I'm asking for that much. I don't need the perfect guy. I don't need candlelight or roses. Honestly, I don't even need a real bed. Sooooo, anyone out there want sex? Anyone? Hello? Just for fun? I am not going to die a virgin. One way or another I am going to make this happen.

<strong>Diese humorvolle Freundschaftsgeschichte ab 10 mit Humor und Tiefgang ist chaotisch wie Katy Birchall und lustig wie Emma Flint!</strong> Priya ist keine Lügnerin. Aber wenn sie ehrlich ist, flunkert sie in letzter Zeit ziemlich oft. Denn manchmal ist es einfacher, anderen eine … optimierte Version der Wahrheit zu erzählen. Dann fühlen sich schließlich alle besser. Oder? Als sie eines Abends den funkelnden Armreif anlegt, den sie mal von ihrer Großmutter bekommen hat, stellt Priya fest: Sie kann nicht mehr lügen. Sie sagt die Wahrheit. Immer! Sie erzählt ihrem Vater, dass sie seine Kochkünste grenzwertig findet. Gegenüber ihrem Schwarm Dan Zhang rutscht ihr heraus, dass sie in ihn verknallt ist. Da hilft nur eins: ein Loch im Boden, in dem sie versinken kann! Und natürlich ihre besten Freundinnen Mei und Sami. Doch so sehr es Priya versucht: Ihr Leben ist eine einzige, absolute Katastrophe! Sie muss lernen, ehrlich zu sein, ohne die Gefühle der anderen zu verletzen. Oder ist es manchmal sogar gut, ehrlich zu den Menschen zu sein, die man liebt? Hast du dich auch schon mal gefragt: <strong>Was wäre, </strong>wenn du plötzlich<strong> immer die Wahrheit sagen musst?</strong> In Priyas Leben geht es dabei ganz schön durcheinander – <strong>Chaos </strong>und <strong>Fettnäpfchen </strong>überall … und ein <strong>toller Lesespaß</strong> voller Humor und Tiefgang! <ul> <li>Für alle Leser*innen <strong>ab 10</strong> von Emma Flint, Liz Kessler und Katy Birchall</li> <li><strong>Erfrischende Freundschaftsgeschichte</strong> mit magischem Touch</li> <li><strong>Wichtige Themen</strong>: Freundschaft, zu sich selbst stehen und erstes Verliebtsein</li></ul>
