About this listen

For fans of Really Good Actually and I'm Glad My Mom Died

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.

If this is the sort of thing you're after, please pick me up and take me to bed (that's the book speaking so a little joke there).

A wonderfully open, funny and sometimes sad story, which made me feel freed of some of my own bad experiences and inspired me to talk more openly about life's ups and downs.

Found myself here as a long-time Taskmaster fan and podcast listener. What a beautiful book this is. The story winds and twists with an equal measure of totally relatable and completely obscene content. I cannot even begin to process some of the experiences Lou shares and my already high opinion of her is enriched further from her tales. I wish her only happiness, peace and joy from here on in, and hope she goes from strength to strength.

What an amazing book. Glad I chose to listen to this as Lou’s words really need to be heard in her own voice.
Incredibly honest and raw but also hilarious. Properly laughed and cried.

Open, honest, hilarious
