Publisher's Summary

Unlike the rest of her family, Maggie Walsh has always done the right thing - that is until the day she leaves her husband and takes refuge with her friend Emily, a screenwriter in Los Angeles - a city where even the palm trees are skinny. Soon Maggie's doing all sorts of things she's never done before, such as wearing sunglasses in the shower and pitching scripts to studio executives - and meeting a mysterious man named Troy, who is so non-stick he's known as Human Teflon.

Great book didn't like narration

It was a good book but the narrator puts you off the story, she sounds a lot older than the age of the characters...sounds a bit like your grandmother reading to you.

Poor narration.

A great Marian Keyes storyline as usual. However I found the narration unbearable at times. The female Irish narrator continually attempted to mimic American males, and did not succeed. Painful and cringeworthy to listen to. If not an American, at least get a male to read the male parts!

Laugh out loud!

I loved this book. It's got moving emotional sections of a woman going through a break up & laugh out loud moments. It's a funny book & being in my 30s found it completely relevant & I almost recognised some of the characters in my own life. The narrator was fantastic & she had me totally engrossed in the story. Another wonderful book by Marian Keyes.

A bit of a let down

I love Marian Keyes but this book was quite hard to finish. Very slow story line and the narrator did the worst American accent I've ever heard. hoping the next one is better...

Brilliant

Another winner. I laughed and I cried and became swept away in this fabulous tale, narrated beautifully. All the characters brought to life by both Marian and Gerri.

insufferable narration

I love Marian Keyes but this is not one of her best. The first 2/3 of the book were so slow, but there are a few laughs at the end. I did not like the narrator at all. She is too old for this first person narration, and her accents and voices were unbearable. I should have returned it as most of the book is set in America.

Slow, but great messages

(Spoiler Alert) This book is a really slow one, it really seems so uneventful for about 2/3 of it all. It took me a while to pick it back up and start listening again because it was quite monotonous, but I loved the ending and I loved that in the end the twist was that both Maggie and Garv needed to take responsibility. Timing seemed a bit all over the show.
