Jenny is at work at her achingly hip magazine, dealing with her terrifying editor and an argument with her housemate over half an avocado.

Welcome to Adults - Emma Jane Unsworth’s funny and moving novel about Jenny, a thirty five year old woman trying to find her place in the world. Jenny knows she’s grown up, but she doesn’t feel very grown up – she lives in a house share, she still has issues with her mother and she’s split up with the man she thought might have been her forever man. She feels too old for her job at an achingly hip magazine, yet remains obsessed by social media. Meanwhile her friend Kelly really does have grown up concerns – a son, and bills to pay. In this episode Jenny deals with her terrifying editor at her achingly hip magazine, meets up with her newest friend Nicole and is overwhelmed by youthful housemates.
