Postcards from the Heart

LoveReading Says

One of our Debuts of the Year 2011.

September 2011 Debut of the Month.

Gorgeously grown-up romantic comedy from a brilliant new Irish voice. Postcards from the Heart is a book about four friends in their thirties. It's about love, lust, life, death, balloon rides and missing hamsters. But most of all it's about figuring out how to stop saying 'I don't' and how to start saying 'I do'. Ensure a box of tissues is close at hand for it's likely to make you laugh hysterically and cry in equal measure.
