Publisher Review
'This honest and beautiful book is a story of resilience and doing life your way' Fearne Cotton 'Kris's story should make you feel grateful for every second you're alive. It's a testament to her positivity, empathy, bravery and her unfailing sense of humour. She is the most incredible human. It's a privilege to know her and to be in awe of her' Dermot O'Leary 'With some extraordinary writing and brutal honesty, Kris' story never lingers on tragedy. Instead, we are offered humour, motivation and hope. This doesn't read like a book about someone living with a terminal disease. Instead, it is a manifesto for how to be alive. It will leave you calm, hopeful and unafraid. A bold reminder to live your life your way. You'll be endlessly inspired by her perspective' Dawn O'Porter 'A story of how a diagnosis of incurable cancer can compel you to live your life more vividly that you could have ever imagined. Kris's writing is frank and funny, the lightness of her tone in stark contrast with the graveness of her experience. It makes for an especially poignant read. By the end I wanted to give her a standing ovation. (After checking my boobs of course)' Annie Mac 'Kris writes with such ease, sprinkling humour and glitter in all the right places. Glittering a Turd is the life-affirming boost we all need' Giovanna Fletcher 'Kris is a hope-bringer, life-saver and ordinary person doing extraordinary things with what life has handed her. Her gobsmacking story will make you laugh, cry, take pause and salute her determination to pack a dozen lives into a single day' Sophie Sabbage, bestselling author of The Cancer Whisperer 'Words so powerful that I weep and snort with laughter in equal measure' Metro
