About “Single Bald Female”

“Single Bald Female” follows Jess Faville, a thirty-something advertising executive whose life seems perfectly on track — until she is diagnosed with breast cancer just as she’s about to land her dream promotion. Suddenly, the future she imagined is gone, replaced by chemotherapy, hospital appointments, and a body she barely recognises.

But this is not a sad or heavy read. Instead, it’s a sharp, funny, and deeply human story about how Jess navigates her new reality with the help of close friends, an online support group, and her own stubborn sense of humour. The novel tackles big questions:

• How do you keep your identity when illness threatens to define you?
• What does it mean to date, work, and dream while undergoing treatment?
• Can friendship truly carry you through the hardest moments?

About the Author: Laura Price

Laura Price is a British journalist and author who brings real-life experience to this novel. Like her protagonist Jess, Laura was diagnosed with breast cancer in her twenties, and that personal journey gives the book its remarkable authenticity. She has written for major publications and worked in journalism for years before turning to fiction.

What sets Laura apart is her ability to write about a serious subject with honesty and warmth, never slipping into melodrama. She understands the small, everyday details of living with cancer — the awkward conversations, the unexpected laughter, the kindness of strangers — and she captures them beautifully.

“Single Bald Female” is her debut novel, and it has been praised for raising awareness about young women and breast cancer while remaining genuinely entertaining. You can explore more about her work and writing on the Laura Price author page. Readers who appreciate authors who write from lived experience will find her voice refreshing and trustworthy.

What Makes This Book Special

Plenty of novels deal with illness, but few do it with such balance. Here’s what makes “Single Bald Female” stand out:

1. Authentic voice: Drawn from the author’s own experience, the emotions feel real and earned.
2. Humour and heart: The book is genuinely funny in places, making it an easy and uplifting read despite its subject.
3. Strong friendships: The bonds between Jess and the women in her support group are some of the most memorable parts of the story.
4. Relatable career and love struggles: Beyond illness, it’s about ambition, dating, and identity in your thirties.
5. Awareness with purpose: It quietly educates readers about breast cancer in young women without ever feeling like a lecture.

This combination makes it perfect for readers who enjoy emotional, character-driven contemporary fiction with substance.
