How To Be Married reviewed...
The Saturday Telegraph
‘Offers an interpretation of what makes a marriage work that is refreshingly suggestion free...The first-person narrative fizzes with life and Polly Williams gives Sadie some brilliant one-liners...but there's pathos, too…’
Glamour
‘Williams offers a sharp and witty insight into one of the biggest modern marriage dilemmas – status anxiety’
Woman
‘A wry look at modern marriage’
So what's it about? Well, it takes a peek beneath the shuttered blinds of the modern metropolitan marriage. It's about those wives, not wholly unlike me, who don't quite make the grade in the trad sense. The ones who come out in hives at the idea of knitting, the ones who are far more likely to lose their husband's socks than pair them, or make sock puppets out of them. (I have a v impressive friend who does this. Really.)
And if you fancy 15% off your spring/summer threads at Coast and a chance to win a spa break and Coast vouchers (what's not to love?) just push the magic Coast button next to the book jacket.
Happy reading! And happy shopping.
Best wishes,

How To Be Married published today!
My new novel How To Be Married is published today!
So what’s it about? In a nutshell, How To Be Married takes a peek beneath the shuttered blinds of the modern metropolitan marriage. It’s about wives, a bit like me, who don’t quite make the grade in the trad sense. You know the ones who come out in hives at the idea of knitting, and would rather pull out their own teeth with a nut cracker than get involved in competitive cupcake baking? Women who are far more likely to lose their husband’s socks than pair them, let alone turn them into sock puppets for the children. (An impressive friend of mine actually does this.) Anyway, it’s about that wife. And love, sex, and the power of good underwear to make husbands happy.
Another bonus is that if you buy my book you’ll get 15% off at that lovely shop Coast so you can stock up on all your new threads now that spring has sprung. There is also a rather fab competition to win £500 at Coast and a spa break. What’s not to love? Just press the coast button next to the book jacket on pollywilliams.com. Good luck!
Happy reading! And happy shopping too.
Best wishes,
