This witty comedy of manners is a thoroughly entertaining read ... extremely observant and insightful * No. 1 Magazine * Her turn of phrase is clever and perceptive ... this book was my devoted pal. Can't wait for the next one! * Now Magazine * You'll be desperate to know who's after who, who's had who and who's actually telling the truth. Without any frills or need for tall tales, Fiona's cracking new novel gives the feeling that it's all real enough to be happening right under your own nose in your own circle of friends. -- 4 stars * Heat * Neill had a huge hit with The Secret Life of a Slummy Mummy, her hilarious take on modern motherhood. This is every bit as funny, and packed with observations of wince-making accuracy ... Superb entertainment. * The Times * This is a high-end chick lit at its best: so well-written, with such believable and engaging characters, it was an absolute joy to read. * Daily Mail *
