Between marriage rates dwindling and the cost-of-living soaring, house sharing is becoming more and more common - but that doesn't stop it being one of the most complex living set-ups of the 21st century. Thankfully, journalist and serial house sharer, Alice Wilkinson is here to help you stay sane when you're feeling stuck. This is the ultimate handbook for house sharers. From how to choose the right housemate to navigating conflict when it (inevitably) arises, Alice draws on interviews with experts and case studies to explore the anxieties that run the lives of young professionals living in house shares and how to navigate them to create a more harmonious home life.
