About this listen

 The Stag and Hen Weekend is the story of Phil and Helen, a couple in their thirties about to commit their lives to one another . . . that is of course if they can just manage to get through their respective stag and hen weekends (his: Amsterdam; hers: a country house and day spa in the Peak District) without falling apart. Told in the unique form of two separate stories that have common characters as well as themes and conclusion, The Stag and Hen Weekend can be read from front to back or from back to front putting the reader in the driver's seat as to which story they wish to read first. Feisty, fun and thought provoking.

I love his books but that was a disappointing ending. Great performances though and I did enjoy the rest of the book

What an annoying ending

Much like the other reviews. The ending was hugely disappointing. Felt like you were expecting more but it didn't come. The ending felt rushed. Definitely agree Phil's story was good. There was an urgency. There was an interest in what was happening. Helen's story couldn't follow or keep up. There are much better Mike Gayle books for sure.

It was a book that covered normal friendships and normal relationships I think everyone will relate and but moved by something in the book.

The concept of this book is excellent, very enjoyable written from the stag and then hen weekend perspective.... except I was really looking forward to the ending, yet there isn't one. Very rushed incomplete book. Strange!
