Claire Nada
'BOOTS' Book Launch Party
Miami Marketta, Gold Coast (Miami, QLD)

The book of the season is here and so is the book party of the year, an immersion into the world of the book, with fancy costumes, dancing and cocktails. Hosted in our fabulous Mona Lisa Lair, come along dressed as your Alter Ego for a night to remember.
Boots is Gold Coast local Claire Nada's debut novel, an eclectic mix of rockstar love, single mum juggling and self awakening. A comedic, yet raw insight into dating as a single mum.
When 29 year old Sarah separates from her husband Stephen, she buys herself a pair of white go go boots as her first step in taking back her power, an act of rebellion after feeling the grey confines of her marriage and her boring job at a bank.
Sarah finds herself navigating the world of online dating, freshly single after almost a decade with her husband. She reflects on the absurdity of all of it, but happens upon a match. A musician called Isaac, who she promptly nicknames Velvet inspired by the velvet jacket he wore on their first date. Velvet isn't the only one who has Sarah in his sights though.
What are reviewers saying about Boots?
“This novel feels like romance entering the chat again after divorce and early motherhood.”
“Nada's vivid descriptions of people, moments (and outfits!) make it easy to feel immersed in the characters she creates.”
“If you've ever loved deeply, lost yourself a little or wondered who you might still become, then this book is for you.
