'This book is everything I would have expected from the wonderful Mel Giedroyc. Funny and touching*****''A well written, warm hug of a read. Something much needed in these days of doom and gloom''I could hear Mel reading this book! Terrific characters. Very entertaining *****''A lovely, warm cuddle of a book''One of the best things I've read this year. Please read it *****''I felt like Mel was reading this into my ear. I was left with the warm fuzzys at the end****''Would make a brilliant film or sitcom. The Parker family are a chaotic, loveable bunch''I zipped through it with many an accompanying titter, the occasional chortle and the odd unladylike snort. A nice piece of escapism, so needed at this time ****''Warm, interesting, clever and funny, as well as poignant at times. A brave heroine, a cast of strong characters and a page-turner of a story *****''Glorious storytelling, this is a rich comedic feast of domesticity. Excellent characters. Kept me gripped throughout. *****'; 432 pages; Published: 17/02/2022
