Radhika Sanghani 
Virgin 

I don t need the perfect guy. I don t need candlelight or roses. Honestly, I don t even need a real bed Ellie Kolstakis is a twenty-one-year-old virgin. She s not religious. She s not waiting for marriage. She s not even holding on for The One. Ellie s just unlucky. But with her final year of university coming to an end, she s determined to shed her V-plates, once and for all. And she s ready to try anything – from submitting to her domineering Greek mother s matchmaking skills to embracing the world of nether-waxing trends (no-one wants a Hitler ) and even You Tube tutorials on how to give a blow gift (it should never be a job). After all, what has she got to lose? Well, besides the obvious. Praise for VIRGIN ‘Laugh out loud Bridget Jones could take a page from this novel’ – Joan Rivers An entertaining romp Emma Barnett, broadcaster and women’s editor of The Telegraph Bridget Jones and Carrie Bradshaw, meet your wisecracking, vagina obsessed match. Sanghani’s debut is a hilarious, irreverent look at smart-alecky, painfully self-conscious, 21-year-old Ellie’s relentless mission to rectify a disastrous first attempt at performing oral sex, get deflowered, find the perfect Brazilian wax, avoid her tradition-bound Greek mother’s nagging, graduate summa cum laude, be a writer, and fit in This story for millennials is a wonderful blend of modern agnst with old-fashioned sweetness. -Publisher’s Weekly
