Rachel Cooke, Observer An Observer Book of the Year Saving Grace is the story of four twenty-somethings - Grace, Vicky, Jess and Maxine - who live in a ramshackle house in a rapidly gentrifying East London...until the landlord announces he's selling up and they've got four weeks to leave.

Media Reviews
The funniest and most perspicacious memoir I've read this year... A brilliant commentary on the housing crisis.... It's hilarious, not only about rapacious landlords and their creepy ways, but about friendship, work, holidays and sex, too. -- Rachel Cooke * Observer *
I was seduced by Grace Wilson's visuals from the first juicy page; highly saturated watercolour textures playfully dancing within the tight yet fluid linework. Saving Grace is a beautiful book... I found it increasingly funny and addictive. It's nice to read a comic that feels so utterly current. -- Jenny Robins * Quietus *
