I am thrilled to officially launch The Opposite of Lonely at my local bookshop in Porty on Tuesday 19th September. I’ll be chatting to pal Mary Paulson-Ellis about life, death and everything in between. And I’ll be subjecting everyone to some tunes as well. Tickets here.

And you can check out the book’s trailer here:

As well as terrific reviews in the likes of The Scotsman and The Times, The Opposite of Lonely is in the middle of an amazing blog tour – check out the bloggers below for their reviews. Spoiler – they love it!

In The Opposite of Lonely Dorothy is finally in a band! She’s formed a band called The Multiverse made up of local musicians and refugees who play at charity gigs and funerals. They have a setlist which includes some of my favourite music at the moment, from The Avalanches to Sufjan Stevens, Lorde to Mavis Staples. Check out all the bands and artists mentioned in the book in this Spotify playlist.
