Quercus has acquired Sarah Knight’s third "no f**ks given" guide, You Do You, for publication this November.
The book follows two previous titles by the "anti-guru" author, -The Life-Changing Magic of Not Giving a F**k and Get Your Sh*t Together - which, according to Quercus, sold a combined 325,000 copies worldwide.
You Do You follows up as an irreverent take on the benefits of being selfish and the pitfalls of perfection, providing readers with "unconventional advice to survive in a conventional world".
Quercus bought UK and Commonwealth rights to the book from Amanda Brown at Little, Brown in the US, who will publish in November 2017 alongside Quercus.
Editorial director Jane Sturrock and commissioning editor Natasha Hodgson said in a statement: "We are thrilled to be working with Sarah Knight again. The response from readers and retailers to Sarah’s straight-talking, feisty advice has been overwhelming – and You Do You has an empowering message that once again speaks to us all. From career, finances and family to relationships, lifestyle and health, Sarah Knight rips up the rule book to show how we can shake off society’s expectations to truly be ourselves."
