A gorgeous loveable book, to make you cry, smile and even, with perfect timing, roar with laughter. Alice, Dan, and their two daughters are a practically perfect family, when the unthinkable happens, their world is thrown into chaos. Each chapter is written from the perspective of three of the family members, allowing you direct access to different thoughts and feelings.
Each tale is so distinctive, grounding you so precisely in that particular moment in time, that it’s almost a shock when you move on. Sinead Moriarty delivers humour in darkness, creating necessary and quite beautiful balance. This tale just gallops along, it is so readable, yet astutely clever, emotional and heartfelt.
This is the first book I’ve read by Sinead Moriarty, it most certainly won’t be my last!
