This is a book about mistakes. And why we should de-flower shame in all its messy, complicated glory...


Hello!

It's Lou here...

I've poured my heart and guts on to the page and shared my soul in this book. This won't be for everyone but I hope it helps the people it does connect with. We all have stories and I think its useful to share them, I think it helps unite us and in some ways it helps us release some shame.

I've been alarmingly truthful and sincere, because I think society would be better if we could all be honest. I've of course used humour too, not as a way to cope (I've processed the darker things that have happened to me), but as a change in pace, some gorgeous light relief, because life is light and dark dancing together in the wind. And I love jokes.

You told your story so beautifully, and it could have been mine. So much of it was familiar to me. It made me cry. It also made me laugh, but I did cry more. You're so brave to share your life , nothing wrong with that, I wish I had that courage. I don't, but you've made me feel better that I'm not alone in how I behaved when I was younger. The regrets have eaten away at me for years, and the anger at how I was taken advantage of and worse, The hurt and worry I've caused. I don't drink any more, haven't for years and don't miss it. Thank you so much for sharing. Huge hugs and lots of love xx

The most beautiful story I've ever read.

I really enjoyed listening to this book. Lou’s great at reading it. I appreciated her honesty and vulnerability in talking about some really personal and traumatic stuff, and her ability to see humour in some of the situations.

Great, honest autobiography

I wasn't expecting this to be as harrowing as it was. It's a testament to Lou's charming storytelling that even in the depths of some dark moments you rarely feel despair or pain, just the honest hope that even our lowest points are lessons to be learnt from. I loved every second of this book, theres some real pearls of wisdom in there and the whole thing feels like a brutally honest, silly and yet thoughtful big hug from a friend who's already been there!

Inspiring!!

wonderful listen. I loved the way this memoir told of some really serious issues, but could then make you laugh straight after. Lou is such a likeable person and her warmth and humour comes shining through in this book. well worth a listen

I absolutely ravaged this book while doing my Saturday chores and upcycling an old box. Absolutely gorgeous and great to hear it in Lou's voice.

Brilliant
