Unlike the rest of her family, Maggie Walsh has always done the right thing - that is until the day she leaves her husband and takes refuge with her friend Emily, a screenwriter in Los Angeles - a city where even the palm trees are skinny. Soon Maggie's doing all sorts of things she's never done before, such as wearing sunglasses in the shower and pitching scripts to studio executives - and meeting a mysterious man named Troy, who is so non-stick he's known as Human Teflon.©2003 Marian Keyes (P)2002 W F Howes Ltd Contemporary Contemporary Romance Fiction Genre Fiction Holidays Literary Fiction Literature & Fiction Romance Women's Fiction Comedy Funny Witty Feel-Good

Would you try another book from Marian Keyes and/or Gerri Halligan?

Absolutely! I'm a big fan of Keyes' work. Halligan however had a hard time with different American accents, it kind of pulled me out of the story at times.

If you’ve listened to books by Marian Keyes before, how does this one compare?

It was a well-developed story with a main character you could relate to, and while I enjoyed the book, it was not my favorite of hers.

Would you listen to another book narrated by Gerri Halligan?

Maybe if there are no American characters in the story. Maybe if the characters are all Irish.

If this book were a movie would you go see it?

Yes please!

Any additional comments?

I loved how Keyes developed the character of Maggie Walsh. As everyone has written her off as the good girl of the family who does everything right, Keyes slowly pulls back the layers of her past to reveal much greater depth to this woman. I thought her a bit scattered and childish in certain parts that seemed uncharacteristic, but could attribute that to anyone going through a life crisis, as this character certainly was. Overall a fun read.

Good girl gone wild, but riding the brakes

Ah the lovely Lucas sisters! And their parents, functionally dysfunctional, and very funny! I'm going to miss them, having just binge listened to all 5 stories, one for each sister. All good but this was one of my favorites. Any risk of becoming romance novels was rescued by believably eccentric, sarcastic, but loving family. very funny with submerged serious life issues. Read all Five!

Rom Com Fun

Love this author and this series of family dramas, the Walsh's are always good for a laugh. Well weaved together with the the other books so it doesn't really matter which order u read them. The narrator did a good job with the Irish characters but the American accents were a bit weird. Now I'm just being picky....

Good storyline, humorous and well written

Marian Keyes is at it again with another wonderful Walsh girls tale. I love everything she writes and have reread them all multiple times. She’s the best!

Very entertaining, I can relate to Maggie & I’m continually amazed by the creativity of the way her thoughts are expressed.

So witty

I’ve had the book for years, and I love the author. The reading is dynamic and lifelike. My ONLY nitpick is the reader’s American accent; people from Southern California don’t have the southern accents of Georgia or Texas. But that’s certainly forgivable.

Great read, great story

I loved the storyline , it was so true to form and wanted it to go on forever .
The characters were typically “Family “- as much as you love them sometimes they can really drive you to distraction , can’t live with them can’t live without them .
Would gladly read this over again , and that’s not too often for me , so truly an honour and display of affection for the story ,

Marian Keynes at her finest

This was a good book -- funny and sad. It wasn't the deepest book but this was very entertaining. But the narrator just made the book live giving it more depth than maybe it really had. The narrator had a great sense of comic timing and managed to create different voices for the characters seamlessly without it being schticky. Good story made great by a fabulous narrator. I'll actually look for more books narrated by her and no, this is not her mother!

Good story -- GREAT narrator
