{"product_id":"all-the-times-you-said-you-were-fine-1","title":"All The Times You Said You Were Fine","description":"\u003cp\u003eYou said it at the school gate. You said it at work, on the phone, and standing at the kitchen sink. I’m fine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou said it so well that nobody thought to ask you twice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is for all the times it was not quite true. It holds ninety short letters, each one written to you in a moment you got through on your own: the morning you were tired before you opened your eyes, the evening you sat beside him and felt alone, the hospital waiting room, the drive home after you left them at university, the changing room mirror, three in the morning when your mind would not stop.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach letter is a single page. It begins in a moment you will recognise, tells you the truth kindly, and ends with one line to keep. A simple list at the front takes you straight to the letter for how you feel today, and at the end of every part there is a page for your own words.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBeing honest: this book is a comfort, not a treatment. It does not tell you to walk away from the people you love, and it does not replace a doctor. There are support numbers for the United Kingdom at the back for the days you need more than a book.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt also makes a thoughtful present for a mum, a sister, a daughter or a friend who always says she is fine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou have looked after everyone else for a very long time. These pages are for you.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BookVAULT Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Perfect Bound","offer_id":68445609263408,"sku":"9781837491452","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0262\/2357\/5085\/files\/9781837491452.jpg?v=1794691637","url":"https:\/\/www.thegreatbritishbookshop.co.uk\/products\/all-the-times-you-said-you-were-fine-1","provider":"The Great British Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
