'Fresh, funny and irresistibly good humoured - the perfect lockdown read' Claudia Carroll'A witty, exuberant debut' People magazine'A mix of The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Frye and a Maeve Binchy novel [...] perfect to savor as we emerge from this particular winter.' American Booksellers Association indie pick'A delightfully friendly and welcoming read' LoveReadingMeet the Gogartys: cantankerous gran Millie (whose eccentricities include a penchant for petty-theft and reckless driving), bitter downtrodden stepson Kevin (erstwhile journalist whose stay-at-home parenting is pushing him to the brink), and habitually moody, disaffected teenage daughter Aideen. With the appointment of a home carer for his mother, his daughter sent away to boarding school to focus on her studies and more time for him to reboot his job-hunt, surely everything will work out just fine.But as the story unfolds - and in the way of all the best families - nothing goes according to plan and as the calm starts to descend into chaos we're taken on a hilarious multiple-perspective roller-coaster ride that is as relatable as it is far-fetched. When Gran's arrested yet again for shoplifting, Aideen's rebelliousness has reached new heights and Kevin's still not found work, he realises he needs to take action.
Good Eggs is a heady cocktail of that warmth and wit of Marian Keyes, Caitlin Moran and TV's Derry Girls.
