This funny, dark, and true (Caitlin Moran) memoir is Bridget Joness Diary for the Fleabag generation: What happens when you have an unplanned baby on your own in your mid-thirties before youve worked out how to look after yourself, let alone a child? This is the story of one womans adventures in single motherhood.
Its about what happens when Mr.
Right isnt around so you have a baby with Mr.
Wrong, a touring musician who tells you halfway through your pregnancy that hes met someone else, just after youve given up your LA life and moved back to England to attempt some kind of modern family life with him.
So now youre six months along, sleeping on a friends sofa in London, and waking up in the morning to a room full of taxidermied animals who seem to be staring at you.
The Hungover Games about what its like raising a baby on your own when youre more at home on the dance floor than in the kitchen.
Its about how to invent the concept of the two-person family when you grew up in a traditional nuclear unit of four, and your kids friends all have happily married parents too, and you are definitely not, in any way, ticking off the days until all those lovely couples get divorced.
Unflinchingly honest, emotionally raw, and surprisingly sweet, The Hungover Games is the true story of what happens if youve been looking for love your whole life and finally find it where you least expect it.
