Heartbreak Hotel | Deborah Moggach

From Deborah Moggach, bestselling author of The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, comes another hilarious and romantic comedy, this time set in a run-down B&B in Wales... When retired actor Buffy decides to up sticks from London and move to rural Wales, he has no idea what he is letting himself in for. In possession of a run-down B&B that leans more towards the shabby than the chic and is miles from nowhere, he realises he needs to fill the beds and fast. Enter a motley collection of guests: Harold, whose wife has run off with a younger woman; Amy, whos been unexpectedly dumped by her (not-so) weedy boyfriend and Andy, the hypochondriac postman whose girlfriend is much too much for him to handle. But under Buffys watchful eye, this disparate group of strangers find they have more in common than perhaps they first thought... Addictive and funny... If there is a book more like a Richard Curtis film, youd be hard-pressed to find it Psychologies 'Just as exuberant and hilarious as The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel' Good Housekeeping

I wanted to like this book more than I did. Having really enjoyed watching The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel I had high expectations. I enjoyed the book but not as much as the movie. I love the premise of the book and it was full of beautifully flawed characters but I didn't get to spend as much time as I wanted with most of them.

DivineDiana I didn‘t realize that it was a book! Loved both movies!📚❤️ 🎥 6y
Victoria_Clyne @DivineDiana I don't know that I knew it was a book either. Hopefully its as good as the movie. 6y

It's the #visitors yo this hotel that make the story. Plus it would be a great audiobook to listen to while you prepare for visitors.

This was a departure from my usual fare. I was enticed off my usual path by a good review and the fact that I really loved the movies made of her other books. I'm so glad I read it. It is a well done picture of aging and relationships and what kind of families those of us who find ourselves aging and alone put together for ourselves. Also, this is what happens when I finish a book. I tell Lucy about it and she decides it's time for me to pet her.

They turned out great!! Yay pancakes! This will be my new go to recipe. It has flax seeds, chia seeds, rolled oats, and whole wheat flour amongst the other usual pancake ingredients. Yum! And I feel better about eating them bc they have some nutritional value. Win win. 😉

Bklover They look delicious! 7y
BookishBelle @Bklover Thanks! They were! And the rest are packed away in the freezer for an awesome quick breakfast. 7y

A charming, witty, slightly quirky tale of a thrice divorced retired actor and his attempt to run a B&B. There are lots of characters and my head was swimming with them at first, but if you just let that wash over you it all ties itself together in an endearing happily ever after kind of way. This is fun fiction at its best.

Ein netter Roman zwischendurch. Leider nur zu vorhersehbar. 😐

A nice in between read. But it was too obvious. 😐

Auf geht es nach Hause. Das Wetter macht das Rausgucken unsinnig, da lesen ich mal lieber weiter 😎

Going home. The weather is bad as it was the last few days, so I don't need to look at the region passing. I think, I read instead a few more pages. 😎

scripturient Guter Plan. :) 8y

Maike Im Zug lesen ist doch immer wieder entspannt ? daran ändert auch das deprimierende Wetter nicht viel. 8y
Sarah83 @Maike Das stimmt. 😉 Bei schönem Wetter hätte man nur noch mehr von der Landschaft sehen können. 😉Das meinte ich 😄 8y
