Who says youth is wasted on the young? Jasper wants to get on in
the world, but he's got a lot on his plate: A-levels, his mother
pushing him to overachieve, weekly visits to his psychologist,
come-downs, YouTube suicides and pregnant one-night-stands. Then
there's his stepdad - the murderer. Hilarious and heartbreaking by
turns, Grow Up is the ultimate twenty-first-century coming-of-age
novel. It paints a vivid portrait of the pills and thrills and
bellyaches of growing up today. Funny, smart and twisted, it is the
story of one young man transformed.
