About this listen

The hilarious and heartfelt new novel from the bestselling author of Out Of Practice!

The Practice at Larkford has suddenly been thrust under the spotlight – and its nomination as a ‘NHS Model Surgery’ is causing the team major headaches. Dr Holly Graham should be basking in the glow of her new romance with fellow doctor, Taffy – but she is worried that the team is prioritising plaudits over patients, and her favourite resident, the irreverent and entertaining Elsie, is facing a difficult diagnosis. Add to that the chaos of family life and the strain is starting to show.

Dr Dishy Dan Carter’s obsession with work is masking unhappiness elsewhere – he can’t persuade girlfriend Julia to settle down. It’s only as Julia’s mother comes to stay that he realizes what she has been hiding for so long. Alice Walker joins the team like a breath of fresh air and her assistance dog Coco quickly wins everyone round – which is just as well, because Coco and Alice will soon need some help of their own. Can they pull together and become the Dream Team that the NHS obviously thinks they are?

Practice Makes Perfect is read for you by Anna Bentinck, narrator of Out of Practice, David Nicholls’ One Day and Me Before You by Jojo Moyes.

After being rather critical of the first book in this series I was a bit wary about reading this book straight afterwards , however I found this was a far better and more interesting storyline with all the main characters stepping up to the mark. Definitely more enjoyable however I'm glad I read book one first for all the relevant background . 100% mark for the narrator again

A new meaning for a " smelly" dog

A delightful story once again; picking up the lives of the people in book one. Great story line with an interesting plot keeping up the interest levels. Drama, humour, love surrounding the Larkford country medical practice. Superb performance by the narrator. I'll be looking for the next book.

Lovely, Easy Read
