Summary
 Sushi for Beginners

'Dammit,' she realized. 'I think I'm having a nervous breakdown.'

Lisa Edwards' career as a hot-shot magazine editor is destined for high-rise New York, when suddenly she's blown off-course into the delights of low-rise Dublin. But what on earth can she do about it? Ashling Kennedy, Lisa's super-organized assistant, is good at worrying. Too good. She's even terrified of a little bit of raw fish . . .Clodagh Kelly is Ashling's best friend and has done everything right: beautiful kids and a husband come prince - everything in fact that Ashling has ever wanted. She should be happy. But she isn't.

Three women on the verge of happiness and even closer to a complete breakdown . . .Which way will they fall?
Totally addictive.’ Sunday Express

'Brilliantly written and fabulously well-observed' Independent

'Keyes has given romantic comedy a much-needed face-lift. Chatty and warmhearted, Keyes's talent is to tell it how it is' Independent

'Laden with plots twists, jokey asides and nicely turned bits of zeitgeisty observational humour' Guardian

Would have preferred a younger voice. I just didn’t feel that Ashling, Lisa, Clodah or really any of the women the younger women that is, were realistic. I’ve just read Marian Keyes‘s latest book And yes Marion read it herself but it was such a soft lovely accent and much more realistic of Dublin.

The many very interesting stories and how they intertwined. It was a really Master full telling.

Excellent story with really interesting complex characters. Serious themes but loads of hilarious moments. At the risk of sounding prudish i found some of the sex scenes a bit over the top. But everything else was fine. Great reading by Juanita as usual.

Fantastic characters great story

As usual I love the humour and the characters that Marian brings to life. I just didn’t like the narrator I found the accents and tones harsh and not fitting the characters. This is first book of Marians that I haven’t believed the accents.

Great story

How the narrator got the job to read this book is beyond me. I would’ve stopped listening the second I heard the shocking accents, but I’d paid for the book so had to persevere. The story was fine.

Dreadful Irish accents

Wonderful
