About this deal
She beautifully reveals her own imperfect but perfect route to motherhood, as well as the loss of her mum so early in her life, how it shaped her, and the mother she became.
I am so excited to collaborate with my colleagues across all divisions of Bonnier Books UK on Louise’s publishing, in what I hope is the first of many deals of its type.
Wilde About the Girl is the sequel to Wilde Like Me from YouTuber and parenting/lifestyle/beauty blogger/vlogger, Louise Pentland. This is definitely something removed from what I would normally read but I enjoyed the humour and the heart that this novel has. The final 50 pages were pretty emotional as we start to realise how everything across the two time lines fit together. First of all, I did a Twitter read-along, so if you're interested in that then you can read over it here.
There was even a bit where she suddenly went from thinking that what had happened when wearing it was a bit odd, to confessing to her friend she thinks she has magical powers.Pentland has identified as a feminist and interviewed Labour Party leader Ed Miliband during the 2015 United Kingdom general election.
