'A lovely exuberant tearjerker' Lisa Jewell 'A stunning debut' Pride
From the Author:
Before you read this, I'd like to tell you a bit about the book I've written. Firstly though, I need to ask you a question: what would you do if you only had 6 months left to live? It's a BIG question I know! Well in my novel, Kevin Bates decides that he is going to write a manual for his daughter Lois - something she can live by, laugh at and follow right up until she is thirty years old. I like to think that it's sad, funny and very real. BY THE TIME YOU READ THIS is my first book and I really hope you enjoy it. Lola x
