"Journalist Nicola Slawson has had it with the idea that something is wrong with single women. Originally covering topics that uplifted single women via her newsletter The Single Supplement, she decided to formulate everything she's discovered into Single: Living a Complete Life on Your Own Terms. Readers will find charming and welcoming anecdotes about being single that doesn't feel like trauma dumping. She knows it's not always easy to live a single life, but she doesn't want you to succumb to the idea that it's impossible to find joy."
