I've googled and googled. I read it about 20 years ago and it's probably aimed at late teens/20s.

Its about a guy that breaks up with his girlfriend, goes travelling to India and absolutely hates it. It's very funny.

I'll be amazed if anyone can recall it.

This rings a bell. Did he go with another girl, and they both fancied each other but never quite got it together?

The one I'm thinking of had a pink and orange cover.

Does he get the squits while staying in a hostel?

Fairly sure it's Are You Experienced? by William Sutcliffe

Hope the link works - it’s this one! Haven’t read it for years but remember it being very funny 😄

It's not 'My Legendary Girlfriend' by Mike Gayle, is it? It definitely rings a bell!

Daria32 · 18/05/2022 17:05

I’ve read it! Didn’t he fancy the ‘hot girl’ so went travelling with her? She went out with us best friend or something? Can’t for the life of me remember who wrote it but will have a think!

AristotlesTrousers · 18/05/2022 17:07

Actually, I think the William Sutcliffe one sounds more like it!

Yes, it's Are you Experienced? by William Sutcliffe. It was a free giveaway on a magazine one summer.

That's it! You are all amazing. Yes I'm sure it came free with More magazine or something. Off to Amazon to order now. And yes he does get the squits, lying on the floor of the hotel shower. Very funny 😄
