The novel walks a line between comedy and wrenching sadness. It is fluently written and its depiction of domestic chaos … is all too recognisable. end quote

She fleshes out her characters so well, that they are almost real. I have read several of her novels since discovering her by chance on Amazon for my Kindle. end quote
