I loved The Cows and this is just as good. Wonderful, heartwarming and immersive, the story centres around a group of individual women who all have a tale to tell. As Dawn does so well, their narratives have funny moments as well as being touching, honest and sad. I really recommend this audio book as the character voices are performed so well and feel really authentic. One of my favourite books of 2019.

Just brilliant - humour, heartache and humanity.

Each of the characters were great and interesting in their own way. I enjoyed listening to this book and got to a point where I couldn’t stop listening. Will definitely be listening to another from Dawn O’Porter as I enjoyed her last also. What I would describe as a get away book to concentrate on others lives for a bit.

Brilliantly thought provoking. We all have our issues and we must accept and love ourselves. Flaws make us perfectly unique.

Fantastic!!
