review 1: This is the second book in the story of Marie Sharp, 60-something equivalent of Bridget Jones. I haven't read the first book but that didn't seem to negatively impact of the second instalment.Marie is aware of age creeping up on her and has to deal with various trials including a campaign against a local property developer, a complicated love life and a family who want to do their own thing. The book is quite amusing, there are no surprises here, but it's diverting enough to keep the reader amused for a while.
review 2: One of the few books in my collection that I paid full price for -- I wonder if that makes it more disappointing... I should like this book, it's very much my thing. But... Nothing really happens. It's all rather boring. Maybe I wanted mor... moree romance? (There is a touch, but it's all rather... Unromantic...) A less self-absorbed main character? A funnier one? I only realised when I was almost finished the book that this is a sequel to No! I Don't Want to Join a Bookclub, and no! I'm not going to read it. I also found it a little bit racist. Yes, disappointing. less
