The paperback of The Stepmothers' Support Group is finally here!

Posted on 04 Feb 2010

I know you can hardly have missed it, I've been banging on about it so much on twitter but, just in case you did, The Stepmothers' Support Group came out in paperback in the UK today!

As you can see the team at Harpercollins has given it a fabulous new cover treatment. I particularly love the wellies - when you read the book you'll see why. Plus I'm really grateful to the people who generously gave me cover quotes - thank you so much to Nigella Lawson, Marian Keyes (and get well soon, Marian) and Jane Fallon.

It's in Tesco, Sainsburys, Asda, WHSmith and Waterstones, and, of course, on amazon, as well as in your local independent bookshop. If you also happen to be a Red magazine subscriber you can get it half price from Waterstones.com.
