Factory Girls by Michelle Gallen was an assigned book for me.
I listened to it on Libby. The reader had a strong Irish accent. This book takes place in Northern Ireland. It took a bit to get used to the accent. I loved the vocabulary, the swearing, the dialogue in general.
When I started, I had to stop to find a TV series. I was remembering Derry Girls from Netflix, also Northern Ireland, which I quite liked. These are two separate pieces, to my knowledge, not related.

I think this author has two published books -

Factory Girls was also not listed on my SuperSummary website.
