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.

I love this story - one of Marian’s best. I first read it nearly 25 years ago. The narrator is great but I’m halfway through and am irrationally annoyed at the way the vocabulary has been Americanised! The book is set in Ireland and London. We don’t have sidewalks and diapers!!! Should have been left as it was!

Disappointed in this edit of a favourite book...

Obviously Marian Keyes is incredible but I don’t understand why loads of words are substituted for American ones? Like subway instead of tube, diaper instead of nappy, butt instead of arse. Arse is a great word! A plea to the publishers to stop doing this in books, surely Americans aren’t so unintelligent as to not be able to work out what the author’s original words mean? Performance was fantastic.

Amazing book but why the American substitutes???

I think this is one of the earliest by the author and I had worked the end out with about 6 chapters to go. Performance was great and there were some laugh out loud moments but the author gets better with her more recent work so try those 👍🏻

Not the greatest...

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.

Great story, hated the narration
