More About The Singalong Society for Singletons

It's now just five weeks until The Singalong Society for Singletons starts winging its way onto ereaders everywhere, which is really, really exciting (but also a smidge terrifying too).  So I think the time has come for me to tell you a bit more about it!

The Singalong Society for Singletons is the story of Mon, a twenty-something teaching assistant whose long-term boyfriend Justin has moved to Chicago for a year with his job in banking.  Mon shares a terraced house with her teacher workmate Issy who longs for a loving partner and child more than anything in the world.  They spend their evenings drinking wine and watching Frozen, their comfort-film of choice, until one night when Mon's sister Hope unexpectedly arrives on their doorstep with her own relationship woes...

The young women find that when your heart is breaking, there's nothing better to do than sing it out and The Singalong Society for Singletons is born!  Mon, Issy, Hope and Mon's best friend Connie are soon joined by two new members who bring a whole new dynamic to the group, and buoyed by the uplifting magic of musicals and the power of friendship, the group find they're tackling their issues in their own unique ways.

Each chapter takes place on a Friday night when the Singalong Society meet to watch their weekly film.  If you want to watch the same musicals as Mon and co, here's the list!  I plan to blog about each of these musicals on the day the Singalong Society watch them too, so keep an eye out for blog updates.
