Reviews of How Does It Feel To Be Loved?:

TICKET AND BOOK COMBO TICKET

This ticket includes a copy of my novel The Tunnels, which you can pick up on the night. The Tunnels is a "suburban science fantasy ghost story", which will hopefully appeal to fans of Douglas Adams, Kurt Vonnegut, Martin Millar and Robert Rankin. It's published by Secret Name Books on February 26th, 2026, but we're selling a few copies in advance. More info about the book here - www.secretname.co.uk. The book is priced £9.99.
