Something new to read in these challenging times! Keep safe and know you aren't alone. 💕

“A lyrical tribute to the intoxicating, dramatic, destructive and ultimately empowering nature of love.” — ANNA MARIA TREMONTI

A gutsy and wildly intimate memoir of a life turned upside-down by grief, that is at once personal and universal, heartbreaking and hopeful. Michelle Parise dives into the wreckage of her divorce with candour and humour, uncovering a story of falling in and out of love, single parenthood, and the messy world of dating (Tinder failures included). Along the way, she reveals the healing power of human connection, reminding us that we’re never really alone.

“Beautifully and powerfully written.” — Terry Fallis

“An emotional memoir of a life exploded and what blooms in the wreckage.” — Emily Urquhart

As "the CBC's in-house romantic" I do "The Soul-Mate Scale" for my colleagues at CBC Tapestry with Mary Hynes. 💕

Renae Franiuk, a psychology professor at Aurora University, says the belief in soulmates can determine a lot about how you enter a relationship, and how long you might stay — even if it gets dangerous.

If you've finished listening to Chapter 28, then you've finished Alone: A Love Story! What did you think?

Mark this moment with one of my favourite songs of all time, which I reference at the end: "Wild Wood" by Paul Weller. I'm here for all your feels

We talk about love and music and philosophy. He's very sweet and young and kinda goofy. I like how un-Toronto he is.

Chapter 28, Love After Love. In this final chapter in the series, there's Spiderman, a sexy cowboy, and I finally make my way out of the wild, wild wood.
