Resumen del Editor
Dawn O’Porter has been thinking a lot about life.
Mostly from a cupboard (and she’s definitely not hiding from her children).
Fearless, funny and unflinchingly real, Life in Pieces is a diary of a time we’ll all remember forever – laughing through the tears, finding comfort in the chaos and (in Dawn’s case, at least) discovering the life-changing properties of a midday margarita.
So if you need a shake-up in your life, here’s the tonic – with a perfect splash of tequila…
‘What should you expect? Tears, belly laughs and to come out the other side wanting Dawn O’Porter to be your best friend’ Marie Claire
‘I've rattled through it . . . Dawn O'Porter redresses the balance by telling it as it really has been: fighting a losing battle against a tide of mess, noise and need, and holding out for 5pm to crack open the tequila’ Mark Watson
Reseñas de la Crítica
‘Moving and funny. I absolutely loved it’ Claudia Winkleman
‘An intimate, honest account of the first three months of isolation . . . Her book is a paean to what is truly important’ Telegraph
‘It is very funny but also intimate and honest’ Louis Theroux
‘Poignant and funny’ Red
‘I've rattled through it . . . There's been a lot of well-meaning but mad advice on how to contend with the strangest period of human history any of us has ever lived through. Dawn O'Porter redresses the balance by telling it as it really has been, for many of us: holding out for 5pm to crack open the tequila’ Mark Watson
‘Funny and heart-rending in equal measure’ Sunday Express
Praise for Dawn O’Porter:
‘Fierce and funny’ Bryony Gordon, Daily Telegraph
‘Smart and insightful’ Red
‘A total joy . . . Compulsively funny’ Matt Haig
‘Straight-talking . . . tackles a host of topical issues’ Sunday Express
‘Dawn's writing is addictive – fearless, beyond feisty and seriously funny’ Mel Giedroyc

‘Funny and very honest’ Davina McCall
‘Entertaining and thought-provoking’ Irish Times

Historia
By the time she was in her late 20s, Tara Schuster was a rising TV executive who had worked for The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and helped launch Key & Peele to viral superstardom. By all appearances, she had mastered being a grown-up. But beneath that veneer of success, she was a chronically anxious, self-medicating mess. No one knew that her road to adulthood had been paved with depression, anxiety, and shame. Buy Yourself the F*cking Lilies is the story of Tara’s path to re-parenting herself and becoming a "ninja of self-love".

There are a thousand ways to find your home - you just need to be brave enough to look for them.

Historia

But her outwardly successful marriage hides dark secrets, and for much of her life the children were the only reason she stuck around. These days, though her successful banker son lives nearby, his young wife seems to do everything she can to keep Alice at bay. As for Alice's other son, he has always been something of a stranger and has been traveling for so long that Alice isn't even sure what continent he is on anymore.

Historia
I haven't tasted chocolate for over ten years and now I'm walking down the street unwrapping a Kit Kat. Remember when Kate Moss said, 'Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels'? She's wrong: chocolate does. At the age of 32, after ten years of hiding from the truth, Emma Woolf finally decided it was time to face the biggest challenge of her life. Addicted to hunger, exercise and control, she was juggling a full-blown eating disorder with a successful career, functioning on an apple a day.

Historia
Charlotte has everything in life that she ever could have hoped for: a doting, artistic husband, a small-but-thriving flower shop, and her sweet, smart five-year-old daughter, Daisy. Her relationship with her mother might be strained, but the distance between them helps. And her younger brother Rocco may have horrible taste in women, but when he introduces his new girlfriend to Charlotte and her family, they are cautiously optimistic that she could be The One. Daisy seems to love Ruth, and she can’t be any worse than the klepto Rocco brought home the last time.

Historia
Tressa Middleton made UK history when she became Britain's youngest mum in 2006 aged just 12 years and eight months. Her case provoked shock and outrage - but the truth behind the headlines was far sadder than anyone could ever have imagined. Born into a life of poverty and neglect, Tressa was forced to grow up fast when was she taken into care at just four years old. She was returned to her mother's chaotic world, but by the age of seven, she was being abused by her own brother and at 11 years old she fell pregnant with his child. For years she kept his dark secret in an attempt to hold her family together until the truth threatened to destroy her completely.

Baking is an alchemical process for Corinna Chapman. At four am she starts work at Earthly Delights, her bakery in Calico Alley. But one morning Corinna receives a threatening note saying "The wages of sin is death" and finds a syringe in her cat's paw. A blue-faced junkie has collapsed in the dark alley and a mysterious man with beautiful eyes appears with a plan for Corinna and her bread. Then it is Goths, dead drug addicts, witchcraft, a homeless boy and a missing girl and it seems she will never get those muffins cooked in time.

Life in Lockdown
This is the second Dawn O' Porter audio book that I have listened to. Dawn shares her days in lockdown at home with her family. This is a daily journal of her experiences during this COVID-19 times with her husband Chris, two small boys ages 5 & 2 and her pets. You might think that listening to some else's experiences, especially in a day to day format would be quite boring or tedious, but this is not the case with Life in Pieces. Dawn has an amazing capacity for reality and expressing it in way that her reader's or in this case listeners can not only participate in, but relive with her those experiences. I recommend this audio book, as it is not only funny, but also deeply emotional towards her favorite friend, who she lost. This is a focal point part of the story that Dawn shares, as well as her own choices towards Black Lives Matter. Listen carefully at her own experiences and the important lessons she has tried to learn concerning diversity. Personally, I have all ways found it difficult to judge a person by the color of their skin. Some of the most intelligent men & woman I have met, or work with in my life have been of color. I believe the Dawn cares very much about her world as mother, wife and writer and that in her own way she is trying to make a positive change to the world and her two small sons, Art & Valentine. I really like that Dawn reads her own books, it adds to the overall value to readers & listeners experience. I do personally wish the language used at times for expression purposes be less offensive, but that's just me, probably just old school. Don't let that stop you from learning the message. Thank you Dawn for your final closing words, the message is so powerful for the future that I won't forget it.

Fabulous funny and frank
This is a wonderful text describing quarantine in the USA.
Dawn is honest and shares everything. I cried and laughed. I love Dawn and want to listen to all of her books. Relatable for people who have ever been in quarantine (that’s all of ya folks).
