I found it so relatable as it is extremely well written. It makes you feel like you are friends with the two sisters.’ Reader review‘An entertaining and thought-provoking story’ Reader reviewNicola Gill lives in London with her husband and two sons. At the age of five, when all of the other little girls wanted to be ballet dancers, she decided she wanted to be an author. Her ballet teacher was very relieved.• Funny, real, heart-breaking and achingly relatable women’s fiction that will appeal to the core Avon readership as well as tapping into a more millennial audience through Laura – the Fleabag-esque heroine battling with the grief of losing her mother and the grief caused by having to deal with her annoying sister…• Explores universal issues such as losing a parent, struggling in a marriage and being generally overwhelmed by everyday life. Nicola’s writing is naturally funny and alternately heartwarming and heartbreaking – and she approaches all of these issues with realism and a touch of humour.• A point of differnce on the Avon list. Whilst this novel is women’s fiction, it focuses on female friendship and family relationships just as much as romantic ones. Nicola perfectly captures the emotions and intricacies of our everyday “messy” lives and relationships.Competition: So Lucky;The Flatshare;The Switch;How Do You Like Me Now?;The Cactus;Grown Ups;The Note;The Wedding Date;The Man Who Didn’t Call;If I Never Met You. by;Dawn O’Porter;Beth O’Leary;Holly Bourne;Sarah Haywood;Marian Keyes;Lucy Diamond;Sophie Kinsella;Mhairi McFarlane;Zoë Folbigg;Zara Stoneley;Rosie Walsh
