Amazing! Always loved Ruth Jones work but this book is really good! I found myself feeling for every character.

I'd read a lot of biographies so fancied something different for a change and this book didnt disappoint. Great read looking at how love can massively influence your life choices for the good and bad....
Absolutely loved this but it will make you question your morals
Still annoyed the following morning that Callum threw away a 27 year or more marriage for Kate 😭 Considering how unfeeling and uncaring Kate was about it all..
So i ended up really enjoying this book after thinking I'd despise it! I felt so many moments of hate and sadness but the ending satisfied me!
I'm so happy for Hetty and Ivor! 😍
I'm overjoyed for Matt finding love again!
And I'm thankful that Kate finally got her son Luca back after all those years!
And the fact Callum takes Belinda on a date every week still as a way to prove he is always hers regardless of if she denies him still... 😭🥰
Ooh i am so happy for Hetty! 🥰
'Matty, i love the very cuticles of that man'
Out of the 34 chapters i have read so far, I've only enjoyed 2 of them.
Matts college flashback when he was smoking pot was hilarious and as much as i don't like Kate i felt happy to find she kept Callums baby.
Overall, i can't see the point in the affair between Callum and Kate, there wasn't any romantic build up between them to suggest they was inlove and i just see Kate as a homewrecker and i feel so sad for Matt, Belinda and all their children
It‘s not often I bail but 6 and a bit hours to go and I really don‘t care where it‘s going. I like the premise and I‘m all about messy relationship type books but this is all over the place. It flips back and forth too much and every character and their nan has a storyline. The two main characters became predictable and boring. Could have been decent with better editing but 4 hours in and it already feels too long 🤷♀️
I really enjoyed this book about an affair that is rekindled after 17 years and how it affects the families involved. It was funny, sweet, sad and infuriating watching reading about these folks - all the right kinds of feelings for a story like this. I love Jones‘ writing and acting on tv, so am super pleased her novel was so good too! Hope she writes more!
And straight into the next book while there‘s quiet time at lunch (one daughter at a party, one having a nap and a husband watching some kind of sports!!). I‘m excited to read this as I have loved Ruth Jones in all her tv shows, think this will be kind, funny and sweet!
