Keyes knows how to make serious issues relatable - and get a few grownup laughs, too * Guardian * Messy, tangled complex humans who reminded me that few of us ever really sort out our lives at all * Jojo Moyes * Magnificently messy lives, brilliantly untangled. Funny, tender and completely absorbing! * Graham Norton * I loved every word of Grown Ups. I will be missing those gorgeous vibrant characters for many weeks to come.

It's SUCH a treat. I felt like I was rolling in PURE JOY throughout. The cleverest cream cake of words * Caitlin Moran * You may have written the best book of your career * Chris Evans, Virgin Radio * Funny and moving, with an acute eye for family foibles * Ian Rankin, bestselling author of the John Rebus thrillers * It is charming, funny and poignant. But also profound, heartbreaking. If you already love Marian, this is her best yet.
