Publisher's Synopsis

'Life, when you think of it, is the stuff that happens to you. And you need to know it's happening, or you might wake up one morning and realise you didn't feel a thing. The trick is to know what's important...' Welcome to THE SECRET LIFE OF US, the sensational Australian drama striking a chord with anyone who's had to deal with reality. Telling the lives, loves and losses of a group of 9 urban twenty-somethings living in Melbourne, the elation, insecurities, agony and ecstasy of riding the emotional rollercoaster are perfectly captured as the group attempt to navigate the tangled web that is life. From the ambitious female doctor whose choice of boyfriend is either already married, emotionally inept or just plain weird, to the love'em and leave'em male whose whole essence of laddish optimism is crushed by unrequited love, to the hopeless romatic who drifts in and out of jobs, beds, and brainwashing cults. The complete paradox of life as a generation Y-er in the 21st century is wickedly unravelled. Now, for the first time, read the novel you see Evan writing in the series.;Drawing on the lives of him and his friends as inspiration, the characters and events from the show take on a new life as their stories unfold on the page. Smart, sassy and sexy, THE SECRET LIFE OF US will be familiar to anyone who has experienced the happiness and disillusionment of work, friends, relationships...life in general!
