    I loved the humour and poignancy. There were so many brilliant lines that I stopped picking them out and just read.I loved it, the dialogue was very realistic, the characters were easy to picture. This is definitely something I would select in a bookstore.You’re great at really capturing a character with just a turn of phrase or one or two lines.A cracker.An exceptionally well delivered offering in a technical sense - uncliched, crisp, lively prose, top quality constructionA darned good read.First class.Absolutely loved it!Definitely pulled me into the story. Something I would buy.Professional and a pleasure to read.A treat to read some genuinely amusing comedyI really enjoyed this and laughed out loud several times. You demonstrate a compelling wit and kept me amused throughout. Perhaps humour is the best way of dealing with serious issues like Alzheimers but you underpin this with a genuine sense of concern.
