Patterson is one of the greatest comedic writers of the last four years, according to THE HERALD. His work is described as "relentless yet ultimately uplifting, every sentence is a joy," as MOJO states, and "it is a delightful, empowering book," according to MAIL ON SUNDAY.

How can the significant events in life truly change us? In late 2019, Sylvia Patterson was a renowned pop music journalist, continuing to write about big music names. But, with the diagnosis of a life-threatening illness, a global pandemic, and the decline of her industry, her life was about to take a dramatic turn.

It was an adventure that would teach her much. The power of friendship, the shock of mortality, and what happens when love is tested. How a walk in the park, a spontaneous dance, and a TV hero can save your life. How your perspective can change on everything, from work, family, and music, to what truly makes you happy. And what really happens when your body, not to mention your kitchen, collapses.

The sequel to the Costa-nominated "I'm Not with the Band," this is the uncompromising, poignant, and darkly humorous journey of Sylvia through the trials of middle age that we all face, as she tries to answer the big question: would this change her or would she remain the same old girl?

A recognizable read from a fantastic author, according to THE FACE, and "there is no doubt about Sylvia Patterson's writing," as the SUNDAY TIMES states.
