Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Read by Marian Keyes and featuring an exclusive Q&A between Graham Norton and Marian Keyes.

Twenty-five years after the iconic, 1.5 million-copy bestseller Rachel's Holiday burst into our lives, Rachel's BACK!

Back in the long ago nineties, Rachel Walsh was a mess.

But a spell in rehab transformed everything. Life became very good, very quickly. These days, Rachel has love, family, a great job as an addiction counsellor, she even gardens. Her only bad habit is a fondness for expensive trainers.

But with the sudden reappearance of a man she'd once loved, her life wobbles.

She'd thought she was settled. Fixed forever. Is she about to discover that no matter what our age, everything can change?

Is it time to think again, Rachel?

Critic reviews

Again, Rachel has all of Keyes's trademark wit, humour and whip-smart dialogue, but it's also a novel teeming with compassion and redemption
Delightfully funny
Perceptive, hilarious and moving, it's a captivating roller coaster of a read and it's a joy to be reunited with Rachel and the rest of the Walsh clan.
Again, Rachel is fabulous. Beautifully written, pure 5-star Keyes - clever, lively, funny, compelling (Nina Stibbe)
Funny, heartbreaking, achingly real - Keyes has done it again. Gorgeous. I absolutely loved it (Jane Fallon)
It will break your heart and nourish your soul . . . No one can evoke deep feeling with such a light touch as Marian Keyes. She brings her characters to life with Dickensian brio. I think it might be her finest novel yet (Nigella Lawson)
It's excellent and it's everything. Funny, gorgeous, but a painful, powerful story about addiction, emotions and humanity. Exquisite (Daisy Buchanan)
A sequel worth the wait . . This garrulous, fast-paced read offers the joy of a reunion with not just Rachel, but the rambunctious Walsh clan. An entertaining, growingly poignant contemporary tale
No other author marries heartbreak and hilarity so seamlessly
Addictive . . . Marian's mastery of story and character is as impressive as ever, and the whole thing rings totally true from start to finish
All stars

I was so ready to go back in to the world of the Walshes after all this time and this did not disappoint. Everyone is older, wiser but true to the characters they were in all the other books. Thoroughly enjoyed this story. Having it read by Marian was great, because it really like she was telling me the story she had in her head personally.

The interview at the end with Graham was great... please revisit Anna too Marian, she is such a lovely person, that I would love to see her happy after her awful 1st book.

I re read Rachel’s holiday in preparation for this coming out and now I have finished ‘Again Rachel’ I feel like I have a big empty hole in my day!

I laughed and I cried. It is beautifully written and feels like you have been reunited with an old friend. There is so much tenderness in this book I can’t say enough about it. Just listen to it!!!!

AMAZING!

Oh my goodness, I listened in less than three days. I loved every minute and was so happy that Rachel got the happy ending she reserved . Thank you Marian for giving us the chance to re- visit the Walsh family who epitomise the family we would like to be part of. Please write a sequel to Grown-Ups, my other favourite. A fantastic book, read or listen as soon as possible !

So worth the wait !
