THE BOOK
From the author of #GIRLHOOD (2018), Dating & Other Hobbies is a collection of female-centred poetry and short stories. Screaming with authenticity and using toe-curlingly relatable observations on millennial life, Cat’s unashamed writing treats the reader with the honesty of a wine guzzling bestie on a night out, making it both gut wrenching and spit- your-tea-out funny. From awkward one night stands, to ghosting, to extramarital affairs, to sending nudes… no stone is left unturned.
