The Hungover Games - Sophie Heawood

Sophie Heawood's book is a tale of motherhood. It is also the story of a lead up to motherhood; an unexpected pregnancy that removes her from her previous life as a celebrity journalist working in LA. Heawood's job makes for a satisfying edge to the tale of her life before pregnancy, a smattering of stars grace these pages, but it is the tumultuous upending of this life that her pregnancy brings . . . and the realisation that she will be a single mother . . . that is the emotional pull of the book.

Heawood pulls no punches in revealing her life and there is certainly no rose-tinted view of life, but as Barbara Ellen wrote in her review of the book for The Guardian "She isn't the first to find out that parenthood isn't a Richard Curtin movie, but her unvarnished take on doing it alone, is a must-read for anyone out there, floundering, scared they're doing it wrong."
