Description

Charlotte Small's life has hit rock bottom. After a series of mishaps, including accidentally flattening a friend's dog and losing multiple jobs, she finds herself at a breaking point. With years of suppressed emotions and disappointment finally overwhelming her, Charlotte hits the wall. The consequences are dire: she's found by the police lying under a Christmas tree with an empty bottle of Port and half-eaten Stilton. It's clear that Charlotte needs to claw her way back from the brink and start again. But can she build a bigger, brighter existence this time around? Annabel Giles' writing is wonderfully observed and genuinely funny, mining the black humour that has become one of her trademarks. This humorous novel is a worthwhile read for anyone looking for a story about resilience and redemption.
