Books
When Sophia brings home Dennis - a scruffy Parson terrier with big eyes and even bigger opinions - she's armed with Pinterest-perfect visions of puppy bliss. But after a sudden breakup, she finds herself solo-parenting a creature who snacks on foam earplugs and shreds slippers for fun. And yet, amid the chaos, Dennis becomes an unlikely source of comfort through a turbulent year. In this candid and laugh-out-loud memoir, between bad Hinge dates and scraping poo off the carpet, Sophia reflects on the oddities of modern life: the awkwardness of being single in a coupled-up world, the pressure to curate perfection online, the strange parallels between raising dogs and babies, and the realisation that building a life isn't always linear - but it can still be whole.
