MAKE YOUR BED AND SLEEP IN IT (SOM MAN LIGGER FÅR MAN BÄDDA)

Warm, witty and painfully honest, the Contrary Mary series is feelgood with a feel-bad edge, emotionally fearless six-book series about starting over when you are old enough to know better, and young enough to do it anyway. A journey through marriage, grief, divorce, desire, revenge and reinvention, following one deeply imperfect woman as she learns that changing your life can be every bit as messy as staying put.

New life. New mistakes.

On the Swedish island of Öland, Maria is trying to build a freer, more independent life. But it is not long before she becomes entangled in other people’s conflicts, lies and dangerous relationships.

As events spiral towards a breaking point, Maria is forced to confront not only the people around her, but also herself.

Make Your Bed And Sleep In It is the fifth instalment in Lena Koppel’s feelgood series Contrary Mary. Dramatic and entertaining, it is a novel about friendship, betrayal and finding the strength to take back control of your own life.
