P.S. I have cancer by Mark Sims. Poetry Space Ltd, 308 pages, paperback.

Mark Sims, a young doctor, was diagnosed with advanced skin cancer just before his 27th birthday. This is the story of his 23-month wrestle with the disease, his passion to raise awareness and funds for research, and how he found love quite unexpectedly while working through his bucket list. Mark died on 19 January 2017; his book is published posthumously, with all profits going to his JustGiving appeal for Cancer Research UK.

Brave and sobering, funny and inspiring.

Danny Wallace, author

It was Mark’s honesty and integrity that struck me. Brave is a word that seems to be used all too often these days, but Mark was truly brave.

Kylie Pentelow, ITV journalist
