Another good revisit to the Walsh family, strong relationships are developed and key topics on women getting older are covered well

Si te gustan las novelas de Marian Keyes, esta te resultará familiar y reconfortante: mismo estilo narrativo, mismo humor y los clichés habituales que ya esperamos (y muchas veces agradecemos) de la autora. Vuelven las hermanas Walsh, con Anna como protagonista por segunda vez, aunque no es necesario haber leído ¿Hay alguien ahí fuera? para seguir esta historia.

Uno de los puntos positivos es que Anna tiene 48 años, algo que se agradece como lectora de su misma generación. Sin embargo, lo cierto es que las Walsh tienden a comportarse igual en todos los libros, tengan la edad que tengan. Aun así, es una lectura ligera, entretenida, de esas que sabes que van a acabar bien pase lo que pase. Keyes aborda con humor y esperanza incluso los temas más delicados, y eso convierte sus libros en una apuesta segura cuando buscas una lectura amable, ideal para la primavera o el verano.

Eso sí, "El mejor error de Anna" se alarga más de la cuenta: con sus 596 páginas, hay bastante paja que podría haberse recortado sin perder nada esencial. Además, la gran cantidad de personajes puede llegar a confundir un poco.

Un libro ligero y reconfortante, aunque más extenso de lo necesario.

Well, now I know I was being a crackless slab over a feathery stroker. This was a good book - mid life rom com, lots of feels, funny Irish people. I wish I had a better memory of all the sister characters from her other books but it isn’t needed. Another good summer read.
