If you were to start reading Nina Stibbe, I’d always suggest starting with Love Nina, which is a collection of letters she wrote home when she was a student in London and nanny to Mary-Kay Wilmer’s kids, with Alan Bennett for a neighbour.
Man At The Helm is the first of a semi-autobiographical trilogy about the childhood and adolescence of Lizzie Vogel. It’s very funny.
This one isn’t about Lizzie Vogel so you could just pick it up.
