On a miserable January morning Sarah is sitting on a plane to Tenerife - dickheads’ destination of choice - for a week-long getaway.

What They're Saying

Critics Review

This is one of the books that really gets at you. And it is entertaining. (…) It is not just a polemic, not just divisive, not narrow-minded. After Bitterfittan the discussions round the dinner table can do more for equality than all the extremist speeches in the world. - Expressen

The book’s strength lies in Maria Sveland’s honesty and conviction - her anger, sorrow, powerlessness and rebelliousness reach out to us in a way that feels absolutely genuine. - Svenska Dagbladet

There should be a law demanding that all parents-to-be must read this book. - Hallandsposten

If Maria Sveland’s very first book isn’t among the paperback bestsellers within six months, then I’ll be surprised. Because here there is something sweet and something salty for everyone. - Nerikes Allehanda
