About this listen

Melanie finds herself single again after years of being one half of a couple. Her friends predict loneliness, frustration, disaster. Her parents are convinced she’s a failure in life. But Melanie is overwhelmingly excited to be able to do her own thing – she plans a programme of behaving badly, after a lifetime of behaving properly.

With her daughter off to university and ex-husband Roger married off at last – to his lamentably young girlfriend whom he accidentally got pregnant at the office party – she has what a teenager would call a Free House, and she intends to make the most of it.

But is the single life quite all it’s cracked up to be?

I love this book. First discovered Judy Astley few years ago, she has a great insight into the male and female minds. Very well read. When you know the book and you do the characters voices in your own head and then you hear the narration and it the same, thats good!

Loved it!
