Thoughtful, honest, funny

I so so wish this book had been available years ago. I needed this. Then and now. It is an honest account of the good and the bad and it made me feel so much less alone. Which, when you've had your heart broken, is what you really need to feel. Yes the narrative is around divorce but the feelings we feel when heartbroken are universal so it's applicable in lots of situations. If you're feeling sad, listen to this book x

WOW

When you feel your heart is broken how comforting to be able to laugh out loud because of the humour in her writing.
Rosie totally gets it and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed listening to her book.
Sad the book is over but I feel I’ve progressed a little more. 💖

Fantastic

This book is the answer to my heartbreak prayers. Rose writes with wit and sincerity. I genuinely felt as though I was having a conversation with someone who really gets what I’ve been going through - the feelings, the conversations, the anxieties. This has really helped me and I would highly recommend to anyone going through a breakup. Thank you Rosie.

Helped me immensely 🫶🏻

If you are searching for comfort, someone to relate to and hope whilst going through a painful breakup then this is definitely the one. I can honestly say this made me feel less alone and a little less crazy 🙈 thank you Rosie for making me laugh in a period of my life that even cracking a smile seems like an impossible task!

Took my feelings and put them into words

I've read & listened to so many self-help / "how to get over a break-up" books and this is by far the best. EVER. It's not the best because it tells you HOW to do it so please don't expect a step by step to-do list, but Rosie literally describes and articulates every feeling, thought and action that you will experience during a breakup. This is something I struggled with every waking hour, putting my thoughts & feelings into words and making sense of the mess within my head, Rosie helps you do this. I knew I felt sad, anger, excitement, happiness, rage etc etc all at once which can feel excruciatingly confusing, but you will find yourself throughout every chapter going "yes, yes, yes, that's me, I had those thoughts, I felt like that, I did that too, ohhhhhh that's why I..." which gave me comfort and a sense of control when I was able to understand the process going on in my head a little better. Having the words to describe something so confusing is incredibly helpful.

The language is easy to understand and take in, it is narrated well and it had me giggling at times too. Such a great listen, I'd highly recommend (I rarely write reviews but this one is worth it). I've even bought the book now so I can easily flip back to sections when I need to validate something or reassure myself I am NOT crazy.

Thank you Rosie xxx

Not just for the broken hearted

Brilliant book, enjoyably read with such feeling. Makes you reflect on what it’s like to be broken hearted and also the actions of those who hurt you. I’ve found personal strength from it at a time I’m questioning my own relationships and this book has been a God send.
It’s also funny as ....!! You go Rosie!!

Thank you Rosie

This audiobook was recommended to me by a complete stranger. One who found out I was unexpectedly, unwantedly (not a word but you know what I mean) single. After 16 years and 4 children. I’m still right at the very start of this journey (confused, hurt) but Rosie has been a lighthouse. She’s made me realise I’m not alone in the dark and given timely advice on how to steer these immediate times when my brain and body is blindsided. I’ll be starting the book again tomorrow.
