A collection of witty & heartfelt essays about love, loss and ambition, from journalist and proud Gamilaroi woman Brooke Boney. Brooke Boney has been in the public eye for well over a decade, first as a recognisable voice on Triple J and then as a recognisable face on The Today Show. These essays draw us into her world, as she writes with honesty, humour and empathy about everything from the downsides of having a public profile to the joys of owning dogs, from the various forms of love that make up a life romantic, familial, platonic, to how that love has been sustained through generations of colonisation and violence, and from the concerns that make up your early thirties, fertility, ageing, career progression, to discovering what’s actually worth fighting for. As a journalist, Brooke knows how to write a story, and these essays are her most personal stories yet.
