In learning to write about her life, will Hope Nicely finally learn how to live it?
'Touching, tender . . . filled with wonderful humour' Sarah Haywood
'A very special book' Katie Fforde
The Sunday Times bestselling novel, perfect for fans of Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine and The Rosie Project.
My name is Hope Nicely. Why am I writing this book? That's easy. This book is going to change my life.
My boss, Karen, says a friend is a stranger you haven't met yet. I think that's right. Veronica Ptitsky and Danny Flynn are strangers, except I have met them now because they 're in my writing class. But I don't want any friends, actually (only dog ones).
I have my mum, Jenny Nicely, who says adopting me was the best thing she ever did, even if my thoughts
bounce a bit differently to other people's
Except when my life does change it isn't because of my book but because something happens to my mum, Jenny Nicely, and she isn't here anymore. And, flip a pancake, I'm not very good at being on my own.
Maybe I do need some human friends after all . . .
'A gorgeous, funny, heartwarming read. Leaves you smiling' Ericka Walker, author of Dog Days

Caroline Day is the Sunday Times bestselling author of her debut novel, Hope Nicely's Lessons for Life. Small Acts of Kindness is her latest novel. As a freelance journalist for national magazines and newspapers, Caroline Day wrote other people's stories: happy stories and sad stories, stories of the greatest tribulations and triumphs. Caroline lives in north London, with her husband, Ben, two greedy rescue dogs, and with occasional visits from her grown-up (but still lovely) children.
