Sophie HeawoodRecensioni

[spoiler] nice to see her grow up from a hot mess to a mature hot mess............. and still not learn to drive

Sophie Heawood had a baby as a single parent at more or less the same time I did and wrote some fantastic columns about it which really resonated with me (albeit my story involved less musicians and LA settings). This book really expands on that and is funny and moving. I could have read a book double the length on this topic, and would have liked more depth in some parts of it, but overall I loved having the single parent journey articulated so well.

I had read about this memoir in the Guardian and also watched the author discuss it online, so there were no real surprises, but nevertheless it was an excellent read. I especially enjoyed the witches from Macbeth bath time routine.
