Absolutely one of a kind – a mixed race chick-lit comedy!
SINGLEHOLIC
by Katherine Bing

Finally, British women of all colours have a comic novel about their experience! (the excellent www.singleholic.com gives full details.)
London-set Singleholic tracks mixed-race Sarah’s search for a lover. Black guys, white guys…who makes the better husband? And who's better in bed? White men get into fights and puke in taxis. Black men buy BMWs and still live with their mothers.



Her black mother tries to persuade her that she should marry a white man like her father. Should she? Or is a black guy best?

Mixed-race 30-year-old Sarah is dumped by her Muslim boyfriend and finds herself single once again. Fed up with being alone, she gives herself one year to find a man. With the help of her friends, Sarah learns to alter her game with hilarious consequences.

Sarah’s dating spree is one of a kind, being multicultural. Sarah’s friends are also truly representative of London. Black journalist Jacquie, who is confidently single, and blonde Georgina who is happily married and pregnant, help to transform Sarah with hair cuts and g-strings.

Join Singleholic Sarah on a sassy Sex and the City multicultural dating spree across London. She goes from dancing through fountains at Somerset House to having a boogie in bars in Brixton.

Playing with racial stereotypes, Singleholic explores in a hilarious and racy way, all those things we think, but are too embarrassed to say. Sarah is a twenty-first-century heroine in multicultural, edgy London. Scuffles, thefts, mistaken-identity and penis size all have impact on Sarah’s love life.

Finally, British women of all colours have a comic novel which talks about their experience.


Author Katherine Bing was educated at Oxford and lives in London. She has been looking for a boyfriend for as long as she can remember.
