Kate Holden is the author of In My Skin.
'Holden has returned with a brilliant follow up. The Romantic is just as confronting and beautiful as her first.' Yen 'Whether she is wallowing in self-hatred or dissolving with desire, her [Holden] insights are always keenly observed.' Sun Herald 'Holden's raw sequel to In My Skin is a sensual, sexy, brutally honest memoir.' Marie Claire 'The Romantic's strength may be that it doesn't end as a therapy-novel-meets-backpacker-romance...Which might be the most truthful kind of autobiography of all.' Sunday Age 'She is an incredible writer, and I loved this book for its honesty and its beautiful prose. 4 stars.' Australian Bookseller & Publisher
