I found the characters in this book so relatable. I love that despite so much happening the true focus was the emotions of the characters and how how I, as the reader, was able to journey with them as they navigated their lives and all the various decisions. 
I was lucky in that I read this book at the right time in my life when I needed the perspective it brought. Would definitely recommend it!

I didn’t expect to enjoy this book as much as I did - I thought it was just going to be an easy chick-lit but girl, it was a journey! It had me feeling a lot all at once - laughing, crying and feeling unexpectedly uncomfortable at times! Great characters and great stories that all come together in a well-done, non-predictable way! Absolutely recommend!

I really loved listening to this book - it played out like a film in my mind. I was so gutted to finish it, I just want to stay with those characters for longer. It took a little time to grow on me, but once I was into the book I was IN IT. Loved the message, love the serious undertones cut with outrageous humour. Really really enjoyed.
