From Emma Jane Unsworth comes a raw, darkly funny, and deeply honest novel about friendship, chaos, and the struggle to grow up.

Laura and Tyler have built their lives around each other—nights out, heavy drinking, bad decisions, and a bond that feels unbreakable.

But things are starting to change.

As Laura approaches her thirties and her boyfriend pushes for a more stable future, she begins to question the life she’s been living—and whether she can keep up with the destructive patterns she shares with Tyler.

Caught between loyalty to her best friend and the possibility of something more grounded, Laura must confront who she is, what she wants, and what she might have to leave behind.

Sharp, messy, and painfully real, Animals explores friendship, identity, addiction, and the difficult transition into adulthood.
