Some nice things people have said about it…

 

“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 in 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

 

"This honest and beautiful book is a story of resilience and doing life your way.”

— Fearne Cotton

“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

"Herein lies deep wisdom-of mind, body and spirit- gentle and fierce at once. Kris has shared her journeys and learnings in such a relatable, open, fun-loving way that I challenge any reader not to come away moved, changed and inspired. Kris is a force of nature and her debut book is, too.”

— Sarah Outen

 

“This is 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 experiences. It makes for an especially poignant read. By the end I wanted to give her a standing ovation. (After checking my boobs of course).”
