From the star of the hit Netflix series The Duchess comes a brilliantly funny, fiercely honest, and dangerously astute handbook of life instruction.
Audacity: willingness to take bold risks, or rude or disrespectful behaviour. (Really, it is up to you to decide which)
Ever wondered how to potty train a ten month old?
How to try (and fail) to make Kourtney Kardashian your best friend?
How to go to work when you've just had a miscarriage?
Katherine Ryan can tell you all this and so much more. Over ten years ago she arrived in the UK as a naive Hooters waitress with skin-coloured hair and hair-coloured skin. Far away from all friends and family, she turned 25, the economy crashed, she gave birth to her British daughter, and said daughter's father turned out to be whatever a nice way of saying "loser" is. Single and trapped in a foreign country, things got tough. Through tenacity, audacity and gratitude, she has now done a reverse Meghan Markle, and is ready to assume her rightful status as the nation's sweetheart.
Covering the ups, the downs, the dead ends and the good (and the bad) work, Katherine Ryan's publishing debut is a meticulously funny look at quite how far a Canadian with a designer dog obsession can go, and how far you could go, too.
