A witty and tender coming-of-age novel set in modern Dublin.
When a book with a hidden cheque goes missing from Jessie McNulty's flat, it sets off a chain of events that turns her life upside down. Suddenly, Jessie - a 25-year-old trying to keep her job, her family, and her emotions in check - must confront everything she's been avoiding: her ex, her past, and herself.
As she hunts for the missing book, Jessie uncovers something far more valuable - a deeper understanding of what it means to survive, to grow up, and to find a little space for herself in a city that never stops talking.
Funny, sharp, and beautifully illustrated, A space on the shelf captures Dublin in all its messy charm - full of humour, heart, and humanity. Perfect for readers who loved Normal People, Conversations with Friends, or Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine.
