Go Lightly, Brydie Lee-Kennedy

A funny and tender story of friendship, family and messy love - and how getting it wrong is sometimes the only way to get it right. Ada is a typical Aussie in London in her mid-twenties. Impulsive and free-thinking, she prides herself on her independence and street smarts. A happenstance hook-up with Sadie, a playwright at the Edinburgh Fringe festival, results in Sadie moving into Ada's flat - and bed. Simultaneously, Ada enters into an undefined, mostly online situationship with Stuart, a struggling artist from Liverpool. Navigating the choppy waters of the various complicated relationships in her life, Ada will learn that her footloose approach to love and sex may make for a great story at the pub, but might not make her truly happy. Across Edinburgh, Liverpool, London and even Florida, Ada confronts the complexities of that dreaded phenomenon all too well-known: the quarter-life crisis.Incisively funny, Go Lightly is a tribute to both the freedom and freefall of your twenties, and to the growing pains of self-discovery.
