Review:
It's a story of love and heartache with plenty of moments that will make you laugh out loud. Don't miss this brilliant book penned by an esteemed writer and playwright * Candis * One of the funniest, most honest and scabrous writers we have -- Jenny Colgan Harvey is a constant pleasure: a serious comic writer whose books shine a light on our common humanity -- Alex Marwood We love everything Corrie scribe Jonathan Harvey writes, and if you have yet to discover his novels, this is a perfect place to start * Heat * The drama is played out with verve and waspish wit * Sunday Mirror * I'm a long-time fan of Harvey's writing - he has a brilliant ear for dialogue and some of these conversations will make you cry and some will make you laugh * Daily Mail *
