Özet
 'Patterson is one of the great comic writers of the last quarter century' THE HERALD

'Unsparing but ultimately uplifting, every sentence cuts a caper' MOJO

'A thoroughly engaging, life-affirming book' MAIL ON SUNDAY
How does the big stuff in life truly change us?
In late 2019, Sylvia Patterson was a celebrated pop journalist, still merrily writing about the musical greats. But with the diagnosis of a life-threatening disease, a global pandemic and the collapse of her industry, life was about to take a drastic turn.

It was a misadventure that would teach her many things. The power of friendship, the shock of mortality and what happens when love is tested. How a walk in the park, a spontaneous dance and a TV hero can save your life. How your perspective can shift on everything, from work, family and music, to what truly makes you happy. And what really happens when your body, never mind your kitchen, falls apart.

The follow-up to the Costa-shortlisted I'm Not with the Band, this is Sylvia's unflinching, poignant and gallows-funny odyssey through the mid-life trials we all face, as she tries to answer the big question: would it all change her, or would she stay that same old girl?

Such an interesting life and story and engrossing way of writing. Sucked in immediately and cried and laughed, everyone should read or listen to understand the indignities of cancer.

A superb rollercoaster ride with big laughs and love out loads accompanied by lowdowns on the dips that any cancer patient will experience. I really hope that this life affirming read will provide comfort and succour to any other poor soul who has to navigate the bastard.

This is a brilliant memoir. Sylvia Patterson describes her breast cancer diagnosis and treatment in unflinching detail, and is brutally honest about how she felt, and how the pandemic made a horrible situation worse. She also reflects on the perspective the experience gave her, and her appreciation for her loved ones and the joys in life. Funny, moving, and a surprising amount of snooker chat.

Honest, funny and moving
