Gabby Noone’s standalone novels are connected by voice and sensibility more than by plot. Layoverland (2020) follows a teenager navigating a purgatory styled like a chaotic airport; Live, Laugh, Kidnap (2022) satirises the world of influencer-adjacent wellness culture and the teenagers caught up in it. Both books have the same comic energy and willingness to push a ridiculous premise as far as it will go.

What ties them together is Noone’s particular brand of YA: funny on the surface, emotionally honest underneath, and always a little strange. They appeal to readers who want their YA to have wit and an edge, without abandoning the warmth that makes the genre so enduring.
