Summary
At 29, Claire is full of the joys of life - that is, until her husband leaves her on the day she gives birth to her baby. With a broken heart, a beautiful newly born and an expanding mirror image, she decides to visit her eccentric family in Dublin. There she starts to feel better. So much better, in fact, that James is in for a surprise when he decides to slither back into her life.

Funny. Easy listening
I’m now a mirian Keyes fan, can’t wait to listen to her next book. This story is funny as it is so relatable . It had a kind of Bridgette Jones feel to it. I loved it

Great story, hated the narration
I was expecting most of the characters to have an Irish accent, but the narrator sounded like she struggled to maintain one. It drove me mad that the main characters accent slipped between a Dublin/London/Liverpudlian accent throughout! Coming from an Irish family, I know what Claire’s accent should have sounded like, so this hybrid sound had me almost throwing in the towel on several occasions. Shame, as it’s a great story.

Lovely
Love the Walsh family stories. Great story telling, great listen. This is the 1st story of the Walsh family, followed by Rachel's Holiday, Angels, Anybody Out There & The Mystery of Mercy Close. I love the fact that when one book finishes, you still get an update on the characters in another book. I love Marian Keyes books, highly recommend.

Charming Irish chick lit
My first Keyes book. I don't tend to read much romance or 'chick lit'. However, I loved this, it is very Irish and very witty.
It is a light and funny read but it is well written and I will be looking out for other books by the author.

Irritating detail
I found this book irritating with too much detail and digressions, it became tedious and predictable.

Drop the accents!
Lovely story but the accents annoyed me throughout. Even for an Irish woman. But enjoyed it

Loves this book
I have tried to get Watermelon on audible for ages and now I have. The first novel by Marian Keyes and what a high she started off on! Very funny, great plot and a real page turner.
