A review by annebrooke
The Best Things by Mel Giedroyc

2.0

This is very much a disappointment - I think the set up is probably quite good, but the whole thing is so fast paced and off-the-wall that it's frankly exhausting. Lots of things happen at breakneck speed for no apparent purpose, but I remain unconvinced of the point of it all. I think it would be better with a lot fewer characters and if there was just the immediate family to focus on. This might have been a much better book if written by a far more skilled novelist but, sadly, that wasn't to be.
