How to Stay Sane in a House Share

Kind, wise and genuinely useful - this book is an essential guide to modern living, and hugely comforting too. -- Daisy Buchanan A brilliantly researched and compelling read. It tackles an area of relationships that has so far been overlooked and combines deep psychological thinking with practical advice and takeaways. I was never a fan of houseshares and now I know why, but I also understand myself and others much better in a myriad ways that will help me in all areas of life in future. -- Emma Reed Turrell A brilliant look at modern womanhood through the relatable, Big Roasting Tin, bath mat, broken boiler lens of house shares. * Nell Frizzell * A deeply insightful, practical and sensitive exploration of the housing crisis and what it means to live in a house share today. Alice has crafted this book from a place of personal experience, backed up by research and science, the resulting book should be required reading for all house sharers. * Rosie Kellett * This is a comprehensive, thoughtful guide that provides much-needed practical advice but crucially a vital sense of optimism. A timely helping hand! * Yomi Adegoke * Alice Wilkinson serves as a wise and empathetic guide to one of the most unexamined yet fraught aspects of millennial life. But she also goes deeper, exploring themes that are central to a life well lived: the importance of self examination, how to set boundaries, and finding connection in a disconnected world. The book is filled with funny, cringeworthy, and painfully relatable stories that add up to a fascinating look into human behaviour. * Rosie Spinks * I’m stunned that no one else has really broached this before, making this a first-of-its-kind look at what is right in front of so many of us. It takes in all of the joy and misery of the way so many modern women live today and deftly engages with how space - both personal and political - comes from where we rest and how we share those vulnerable moments. Full of practical and purposeful advice for anyone seeking to house-share. * Sophie Wilkinson * A love letter to home and friendship and a damning indictment of our housing crisis. * Kieran Yates *
