Go Lightly A Novel

"Brydie Lee-Kennedy's writing is sharp and funny and humane. A passionate chronicler of the ridiculous-in people, in society, in sex-Brydie skewers everyone equally, but always with empathy, warmth and wit." - Monica Heisey, bestselling author of Really Good, Actually

"Ada is a unique heroine, and she'll stay with me for a long time. It's vivid, raw, and hopeful-a novel that really nails the chaos, panic, and joy of being young and trying to find your way in love and in life." - Daisy Buchanan, author of Insatiable

"A truly fabulous bisexual book . . . It's so well written, and so smart, and tender and silly and made me laugh out loud." - Ella Risbridger, author of Midnight Chicken (& Other Recipes Worth Living For)

"Go Lightly is brimming with wit and wisdom. This novel is an ode to love in all its forms: sexual, platonic, familial, and above all self-love." - PJ Ellis, author of Love and Other Scams

"Packed with lovable characters, mouth-watering food and just the right amount of chaos, Go Lightly has everything I look for in a funny, romantic novel." - Lizzie Huxley-Jones, author of Vivi Conway and the Sword of Legend

"Captures twentysomething chaos. A sharp wit . . . often very funny." - The Times (London)

"Sharp, witty and . . . astute." - The Herald

"Funny, perceptive and effortlessly engaging . . . I loved this novel." - Lily Lindon, author of Double Booked

"Debut novelist Lee-Kennedy deftly presents Ada's misconceptions over how she is received in this throwback novel of female recklessness, like Breakfast at Tiffany's by Truman Capote or The Dud Avocado by Elaine Dundy, only now with lives further muddied by texting and social media. Ada is sometimes carefree, other times has a blustery optimism contrary to her circumstances; the book highlights the hilarity and melancholy of living life to the fullest and yet not feeling fulfilled." - Booklist
