My book launch day for The Lido started with a swim at Brockwell Lido in a heatwave. I started launch party day for The Lifeline with a swim in my local river in a bobble hat 🤣

Join me at 7pm this evening over on Instagram, @mrsamandaprowse talking to Libby Page about her fabulous new book 'The Lifeline'. Much love, Amanda Xx

Thank you Libby Page for writing The Lifeline - a beautiful and emotional book.

A reminder about how important it is to look after ourselves if we are to help others.

Last week I got to see my latest book for the very first time when I signed copies to head out to indie bookshops. It feels a little surreal to hold this follow up to The Lido in my hands 6 years after my debut came out. The Lifeline is officially published next week 💙🛟

Does it get better than seeing my book in a bookshop window rubbing shoulders with the wonderful Marian Keyes? 😍

Just over two weeks until The Lifeline comes out! geni.us/thelifeline

Just me weighing the average paperback so I can calculate exactly how many books I can buy on my trip to NYC tomorrow without going over my luggage allowance.

“Mental health nurses are the glue that helps put people back together.' I was very fortunate to speak to Dr Emma Wadey Ph.D FQNI RN (MH) as research for my latest book. Here, she explains why this 'invisible' job deserves celebrating

The surprise book was The Seven Year Slip by Ashley Poston, one I've been wanting to read for a while after loving The Dead Romantics. Good job past me!

Some of the 'terrible' thoughts I had as a new mother (that I now know are perfectly normal): tiny babies are really boring, I'm not sure I love my baby yet, I miss my old life... libbypage.substack.com/p/why-i-wrote-…

Grief really is the gift no one wants that just keeps on giving, isn't it? Nearly 5 months since my loss and the weight of it unexpectedly knocked me sideways today. A weighted blanket and reading in bed, very grief-y sort of day.
