Summary

Lucy Sullivan is 26 and living it up (and occasionally down) in London. 

Hers is a life of quiet, undisciplined desperation. But when she and three friends visit a psychic for a bit of fun and the woman's predictions start coming true, Lucy is horrified. For the fortune-teller insisted she'd soon be married - within the year, in fact.Not only does Lucy not have a boyfriend, but the chances of getting one are looking slim. 

Between the bottles of wine, antidepressants and her addiction to self-help books, she's not quite ready to walk, or even stumble, down the aisle sober. Is Lucy's fate really written in the stars? Or will she finally take control of her own destiny?

Critic reviews

"Gloriously funny." (Sunday Times)  

"When it comes to writing page-turners that put a smile on your face and make you think, Keyes is in a class of her own." (Daily Express)

How COULD you???

How could you take my favourite Marian Keyes book and destroy it so much by insisting Amy McAllister speak in such a DISASTER of an accent. You idiots! Years, YEARS, I have waited for the audio version of this book to come out.

Who the hell in their right mind is going to be able to listen to 17 hours and 46 minutes of a complete CHAV destroying this literary masterpiece. You may as well have asked Vicky Pollard to speak.

No book in history has made me laugh as much as this over the years. This book will have to be returned. Disappointed isn’t the word. What market research did you do to get the correct voice. She basically yells constantly.

Moronic.

Why do some Narrators shout the dialogue

I have read this book before when it came out. Outdated values by today standards. I can’t get over the very shouty narrator. Annoying most of the book!

Dreadful narrator

The dreadful accents of the characters totally distracts from the text. I had not previously read this Marian Keyes book, so was looking forward to hearing it. I now feel that I can NEVER READ it as I will always have the appalling narrator playing in my head. Such a massive disappointment.

Awful audible narration

Terrible accents. Narrator uses the wrong accents for characters at some points of the book also. The Scottish accent, wow, shameful.

Lucy Sullivan Is Getting Married

This has long been one of my favourite books, and I was delighted when it was recorded on audible but what a disappointment it has turned out to be. In my opinion the narrator has spoiled not only the characters but also the story.

Awful narration

Such A shame as it’s clearly not the narrator’s fault. However she was guided to speak with the most ridiculous accent as was Daniel. Quite a good story. Definitely not one of her best.

Disappointing

I’m a great Marian Keyes fan but this is a very childish story narrated by what sounds like a teenager. Full of bad accents first time I have bought a book without sampling the narration just assumed it would be as good as the others
