Sophie Gravia

Sophie Gravia is a Scottish author and podcaster whose hilarious, frank novels about modern dating have made her an overnight success story. Raised just outside Glasgow, she worked as a nurse before becoming a full-time writer. She self-published her first novel, A Glasgow Kiss, during lockdown — and woke up the next morning to find it at number one in the charts. She has since sold a quarter of a million books and had her debut optioned for a BBC series. The Dicktionary Club follows three Glasgow women who, after one too many disastrous dates, create an exclusive women-only website dedicated to reviewing Scotland's worst serial swipers. The book has been described as Fleabag meets Sex and the City with added Scottish spice. Her writing captures the chaos, comedy, and occasional heartbreak of modern dating with warmth, frankness, and a distinctly Glaswegian voice. Her audiobooks and books offer listeners and readers laugh-out-loud comedy about friendship, love, and the absurdities of modern romance — proof that self-publishing can launch genuine literary phenomena when the voice is right and the stories are true.
