Liv's Alone

Amateur Adventures in Solo Motherhood

By: Liv Thorne

Narrated by: Liv Thorne

A taboo-busting, funny and poignant audiobook about choosing to have a baby by yourself.

When Liv Thorne was in her 20s, and single, she would joke to friends that if Mr Right didn't come along, she'd have to take matters into her own hands and have a child on her own. When she was still single in her 30s, it stopped being a joke and she started researching sperm banks and fertility clinics.

Liv's Alone is an honest and hopeful memoir that captures the joy and the challenge that is parenting alone by choice. From smashing the fairy tale story that we're fed from a young age and grieving the life you thought you were going to have, to buying sperm from Denmark and bringing a baby into the world, Liv guides listeners through the highs and lows with warmth, humour and understanding.

This audiobook is for anyone who might want to take charge of their parental destiny, learn more about modern families or want to be reassured that there is no right or wrong way to parent.

Excellent listen

Highly recommend whether you are considering becoming a single parent or just want a great listen. Amazing book that twists between sad and humorous along the way, I laughed and cried!

Just perfect... for me.

Great, inspiring story for anyone that's either thinking or has decided to become smbc. Lots of raw, honest feelings about the whole process. Great listen.
