It's a novel that simply roars along, full of proper LOL moments as well as real poignancy. Aisling is the perfect heroine for our chaotic times.
Sarra Manning, Red Online

Event Magazine
I've spent the last forty-eight hours laughing my head off at this novel . . . but it's not just comic, there's a real heart to it and it's often very moving
John Boyne This book is the funniest, warmest, loveliest book I've read in so long. The characters are so hilarious and relatable, I laughed non-stop and genuinely didn't want it to end
Lucy Vine One of my fave novels of 2017. It really does remind me of Marian Keyes

Paul Howard I had expected this delightful book to be funny and it really, really is. But I never expected the feels. I didn't expect big fat tears to roll down my country face
Tara Flynn
Irish Times
A loving ode to a certain type of Irish woman that's hilarious, comforting and warm. A hot water bottle of a book, if you will
The Daily Edge
Sweet, charming, funny and poignant
The Journal
Every Irish person knows an Aisling, and there is nothing more delightful than recognising something familiar being projected back at you through a novel. While the books are both extremely funny, they also reflect a period in Irish culture and centre around a heartwarming story for Aisilings of the ages
