''DEEPLY HONEST, SURPRISINGLY HILARIOUS AND UPLIFTING'' The Pool ''HEART-WARMING: UNMISSABLE'' Damian Barr, Metro Susan Calman is a much-loved comedian and writer who has appeared on countless radio and television programmes from The News Quiz and Just a Minute to Armchair Detectives and Secret Scotland. She''s hosted the podcast Mrs Brightside and stole the nation''s hearts in Strictly Come Dancing. Her breakout solo stand up show, Susan Calman is Convicted, dealt with subjects like the death penalty, appearance and depression. It was the overwhelming and positive reaction to the show she wrote about mental health that made Susan want to write a more detailed account of surviving depression when you''re the world''s most negative and anxious person. The Crab of Hate is the personification of Calman''s depression and her version of the notorious Black Dog. A constant companion all her life, the Crab has provided her with the best, and very worst of times. This is a very personal and affecting memoir of how, after many years and with a lot of help and talking, Susan has embraced her dark side and realised that she can be the most joyous sad person you''ll ever meet. CHEER UP LOVE IS FUNNY, POIGNANT AND (HOPEFULLY) INFORMATIVE.IT''S ALWAYS GOOD TO TALK AND TO REALISE YOU ARE NOT ALONE. *If you loved Cheer Up Love, try Sunny Side Up, Susan''s Calmanifesto of Happiness*

The Calmanifesto of Happiness''One of the kindest people I have ever met - a beautiful dancer and a beautiful person'' Kevin Clifton''Be good, be kind, be more like Susan Calman'' Kirstie Allsopp''Be kind to yourself - read this book, keep it on your bedside table or on your Kindle - even Kindle has the word kind in it'' Sandi Toksvig''Full of wisdom and humour, with the soft underbelly of the profound'' Fi Glover''It''s a warm, funny and delightful book that is sure to cheer even the grumpiest curmudgeon in your life'' Woman and HomeSusan Calman''s enthusiasm at being on Strictly Come Dancing was an inspiration to all of us. Cheer Up Love, Susan''s first book, had a clear aim: to help people understand depression. Sunny Side Up has a similarly clear path: to persuade people to be kinder to each other and spread more joy. These are extremely difficult and confusing times - people are cross and shouty. It''s exhausting! But more than anything, people like Susan, people who don''t hate other people, are apologising for the way that they think. Susan wants to make sure that they don''t. She wants them to know that it''s ok to love people and that kindness is something wonderful and brilliant. Above all, she wants them to bring on the joy. So the mission is simple. To get the nation to join her in not being negative. To bring back joy, kindness and community, to find that joy in the little things in life and defeat the hate and fear. Susan is a one-woman army of hope and joy, and she''s ready to lead the nation in a different direction.
