General Interest The Hungover Games Product Description** THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER ** 'Indecently entertaining' Guardian 'Hilarious' The Times I had no idea how to commit to another human being. I could barely commit to reading a magazine, and I wrote for magazines for a living. My specialist subject was celebrities, and my own relationships made their marriages look eternal. I'd never paid a household bill that didn't mention bailiffs, and my idea of exercise was to go and stand outside a famous person's house and stare until I'd convinced myself that I lived in it. But my life in LA was happy free of care and consequence. That was, until I came down to earth - with a bump. So this is the story of how I staggered from partying in Hollywood to bringing up a baby in Piss Alley, Dalston how I never did find a copy of What To Expect When You Weren't Even Fucking Expecting To Be Expecting, and why paternity testing is not a good topic for a first-date conversation. People always said I'd find love where I least expected it. I always said they were idiots. 'Beautiful, wild, painfully honest, hilarious and sometimes heartbreaking' Dolly AldertonReviewSharply observed and funny... Indecently entertaining... Beautiful. -- Fiona Sturges GuardianFunny, acerbic, sometimes despairing and brutally candid... A must-read for anyone out there, floundering, scared they're doing it wrong. The writing is great in The Hungover Games, but the humour and honesty are even better. -- Barbara Ellen ObserverOutrageously entertaining. -- David Nicholls i NewspaperBrilliantly bawdy and movingly tender. A warm, generous and hilarious read, it's also a great listen: 2020 was the year I got into audiobooks and this one, read by the author herself, had me guffawing in public. -- Lynn Enright Irish Times *Books of the Year*Honest, moving and funny... Brilliant... Heawood has written a tender book about parental love that she and her daughter should be proud of. -- Susannah Butler Evening StandardHilarious... It is a charming, diverting, indie flick of a memoir, a joy to gulp down. -- Alice-Azania Jarvis The TimesBeautiful, laugh-out-loud, honest and, on occasion, heartbreaking. -- Sophie Cockett GlamourAs funny as it is moving, The Hungover Games is a gorgeous read. -- Anna Bonet Good Housekeeping *20 of the Best Nonfiction Books*It's a deeper, funnier, realer, more poignant Bridget Jones. I have never read a more accurate account of what it feels like to be a parent, especially a single one. -- Philippa PerryBeautiful, wild, painfully honest, hilarious and sometimes heartbreaking... a soulful, truthful homage to a life lived with appetite, intensity and wonder. -- Dolly AldertonAbout the AuthorSophie Heawood was born and raised in Yorkshire, where she never quite mastered the accent. She studied Spanish and Portuguese at university, where she also never quite mastered the accents, and dropped out of her degree to work on the door of nightclubs. Her parents were thrilled.
