Bloom, Lucy,

Get the girls out / Get the girls out : a memoir of love, loss and letting loose Lucy Bloom. - Sydney, N.S.W. : HarperCollins Publishers, 2019. - 246 pages, 8 unnumbered pages of plates : colour illustrations, colour portraits ; 24 cm.

"Stirring, straight-talking, incredibly inspiring, full-on and funny - Lucy Bloom is one of a kind, and so is her memoir. Lucy's openhearted interest in the world has taken her from jillarooing to maternity hospitals in Ethiopia, from marshalling a cross-country carnival in northern Uganda to CEO briefings in the back of a tuk-tuk in Cambodia. Hers has been a life of fighting for the underdog, only to find out that, sometimes, the underdog is actually her. Taking all dramatic life-turns, side-steps and face-plants in her stride, Lucy has rebuilt her life every time, with love and adventure at its heart, plus a side order of mischief. Rollicking, rude, brimful with joy, and written with a take-no-prisoners, bare-all honesty, this book is a call to arms - a book to make you laugh out loud, nod your head in recognition, re-charge your life and let loose. 'My deepest wish is that reading this book makes you want to do cool stuff, make plans, launch that business, pack your bags, shave your head, ride that horse, date that hottie, apply for that job, chuck that party - and, most of all, get your girls out, whatever that means for you.' 'This memoir is so full of life and its ups and downs, you will start reading it again as soon as you finish. We are all richer for knowing Lucy' - Wendy Whiteley OAM"--Back cover.
