Utterly charming, with believable characters, funny bits, sad bits, happy bits.

It was a quick read with a very predictable ending. I‘m also a little disappointed that Dot never got called out on her lies.

A nice easy read. I'm not sure how much I enjoyed it as I found it quite annoying in parts and then
quite funny in parts.

It's not often that I laugh out loud when reading and even more so in public but reading this on whilst doing a 5 hour total of train travel today I had several big smiles and a few giggles. I was so engrossed that when my kindle battery ran out I had to load up the app on my phone to make sure I could find out what happened. It's that good a book.
I just really liked the characters. They are all so likeable and fully formed. I loved the premise of Dot lying to her dying grandma that she has a boyfriend and then having to firstly find him, then convince him to attend her sisters wedding and join the subterfuge. Felix is at first a little stuffy but then we find out why and I really grew to like him as he thawed out and started to enjoy life again.
It's a lovely, light-hearted book, fully of joy and a pleasure to read. I'm looking forward to reading the authors other books.
