Story
Lucy Sullivan is 26 and living it up (and occasionally down) in London. Hers is a life of quiet, undisciplined desperation. But when she and three friends visit a psychic for a bit of fun and the woman's predictions start coming true, Lucy is horrified. For the fortune-teller insisted she'd soon be married - within the year, in fact. Not only does Lucy not have a boyfriend, but the chances of getting one are looking slim. Between the bottles of wine, antidepressants and her addiction to self-help books, she's not quite ready to walk, or even stumble, down the aisle sober.

Just a great book to listen to
I thoroughly enjoyed listening to Marian Keyes' reading of her latest book. Having read most of the other Walsh-sister novels does help, I think, to get a full picture, but isn't necessary.

Predictable light fun
Could’ve been a little more concisely written as it meandered a bit , but enjoyable easy listen

Fantastic!
There is only one thing better than listening to a Marian Keyes audible book and that is listening to it being read by herself. Excellent book - loved catching up with the Walshes and so enjoyed Marian’s voice. Now let’s all wait for a Grownups sequel - holding thumbs.

Belaboured
Very drawn out and repetitive. The book needed a good edit. The long list of names at who where there, and who dropped in and who attended began to irritate. Listen to the Epilogue and you will get it!

She “Gets” ordinary stuff
Once again Marian Keyes has excelled. I have read all her books and loved every single one of them and this one is no exception. She manages to tell a story with love and sorrow with such knowledge ,where other authors just make it Naff.
Her narration of course was perfect. Who better than the author,who put her heart and soul into writing this book, to read it how it should be. With belief and passion. Can’t wait for the next book.

Stunning and reflective
The phrasing is compact but has a flow. The performance was such I almost felt like I was listening to music. The lilt of the language was the icing on the cake.

BORING. Wish there was something that stood out but I can't think of anything right now, except boredom
This is by far the most boring book I've read. I wish I could return it. I have always been a MK fan. This was a disappointment. Not even the Irish humour was funny. What a pity. Can't listen any further.
