What to expect

Brought to you by Penguin.

Have you ever worried about going on holiday alone?

Felt queasy at the thought of Valentine's Day without a date?

Thought to yourself, "I want what she has?"

This book is the tonic you need.

ANGELICA MALIN - MEGAN BARTON HANSON - ANNIE LORD - STEPHANIE YEBOAH - SHAPARAK KHORSANDI - POORNA BELL - CHARLIE CRAGGS - REBECCA REID - ASHLEY LOUISE JAMES - CHANTÉ JOSEPH - ROSIE WILBY - SALMA EL-WARDANY - NATALIE BYRNE - SHON FAYE - VENUS LIBIDO - JESSICA MORGAN - FRANCESCA SPECTER - SHANI SILVER - RACHEL THOMPSON - BELLA DEPAULO - MIA LEVITIN - FELICITY MORSE - KETAKI CHOWKHANI - LUCIE BROWNLEE - CHLOE PIERRE - SOPHIA MONEY-COUTTS - NICOLA SLAWSON - RAHEL AKLILU - SOPHIA LEONIE - ROSE STOKES - MADELEINE SPENCER

Curated by journalist and author Angelica Malin, Unattached explores the nuances of being single today through the voices of thirty women; with personal essays from a multitude of game-changing voices, reflecting both the unique challenges of being single (hello, going to a wedding alone), and the glorious benefits of singlehood in a light-hearted way (goodbye, joint bank account).

The single positivity movement is here, and this book will turbo-charge the revolution. Unattached shines a light on brilliant women stepping into their power, shrugging off the shackles of traditional labels, owning being alone, and reveals the true depth of female potential when we choose to go against what society expects of us and revel in our own strength.

  • Unattached hopes to "turbo-charge" the "single positivity movement"
