About this listen
It's New Year's Eve, and at a house party, three women bond over dodgy cocktails and fortune cookies, and vow to make this year their best one yet. But as the months unfold, Gemma, Saffron, and Caitlin find themselves tested to their limits. Under pressure, they are each forced to rethink their lives. But dare they take a chance on something new?

Easy listening
Bought to listen in the car . The story line is simple and therefore not distracting but this doesn’t mean boring. It’s chick lit at its best , you are drawn into the lives of the three main characters in a sleepy Suffolk village and how chance brings them together .
The only slight irritation was the performance by the narrator , it didn’t quite work for me in places at first but I soon got used to her and only occasionally did it grate .

Narrator
Awful narration. Almost stopped listening because of it. Rolling Rs and overpronouncing of words very irritating. Got better after 6 chapters as the narrator seemed to get into the story. The story itself was a perfect holiday listen.

Heart warming story
Once the backstories were in place the main story began.
I spend a lot of time multitasking, so occasionally I lost the thread due to wanting to listen to this none stop. The short chapters meant just popping back a few minutes and I was back on track 😀
An enjoyable listen

A nice easy listening story
It took me a while to settle with the narration because it was a little halting but after a while as the story progressed I didn’t notice it as much. There was nothing novel about the story but it was easy listening and enjoyable.

Easy listen
Enjoyed this book. The characters are relatable and likeable. There is the odd stutter in the recording at the start of chapters
