Dot is a lonely pensioner. Max is a young offender. But a chance meeting in their local park changes everything for this unlikely duo. They soon find they share a wicked sense of humour and a penchant for petty crime.

When Dot wins the lottery, Max helps her make a bucket list of all the things she’s always wanted to do but never had the chance.

The pair gradually realise that it’s not just expensive gadgets, fast cars and fun fairs that make them happy. And that the secret to living a rich life isn’t money . . .

The bucket list was such an easy and enjoyable listen. I found myself instantly connected to Dot and invested in her story. The story is heartwarming and cosy and I found myself thinking of my own grandparents often. I love Dots unlikely friendship with Max and how their relationship develops. Perfect feel good read/listen! The voice actor does a great job too.

Feel good, easy to read, great characters

I read the paperback and loved it, so thought I'd try the audiobook. And, it's even better! The narrator is brilliant, adding even more real emotion and humour to the story. I cried like 3 times, both happy and kind of sad tears. This is a fairly quick listen at 8 hours, but worth every moment. I enjoyed this book so much and it was so happy and heartwarming, that I think it will be one that I revisit it whenever I'm feeling down.
