About this listen

Dan and Gemma have found their dream first home, but the asking price is the stuff of nightmares. The only way they'll ever save for a deposit is by returning, rent free, to Dan's childhood home. Obviously no one wants to move back into a bedroom still adorned with Kylie posters, with a mother whose culinary skills are noted for their spectacular gastrointestinal effects. But it's for only six months. Even they can manage that. Surely.

As usual Jane Costello is superb a lovely read. My only criticism is a little swearing so I will no let my grand daughter listen to it as I really don't think there was any need for it.

Easy listen

Not much to like or dislike. An easy listen, quite dull at times then a couple of bits where I laugh out loud. A bit of a waste of my credit.

Ok story but nothing special (sorry to say!)

I listened to the end as I don't like not to finish books however it wasn't particularly riveting. You could see just about everything coming a mile off. Slow story but nice characters. I wouldn't recommend to a friend though.

Great gentle escape

A book to make you laugh out loud with its great use of everyday language. Escapism chick lit at its best.

Enjoyable but so lightweight

Currently going through a torturous house purchase as I Was listening to this, stuck with it as it seemed to mirror so much of what I was coping with too. Nice, lightweight tale, really well performed by a male and female actor. Just the characters were too good to be true, but if you suspend disbelief, it's very enjoyable.
