Based on Clare Wises blog, which she started when she was first diagnosed with cancer in 2013, Not That Kind of Love charts the highs & lows of the last three years of Clares life.

The end result is not a book that fills you with despair & anguish. On the contrary, Not That Kind of Loveshould be read by everybody for its candour, & for its warmth & spirit. Clare is an astonishingly dynamic, witty & fun personality, & her positivity & energy exude from every page.

- the actor Greg Wise
- takes over, & the book morphs into a beautiful meditation on life, & the necessity of talking about death.
