I really liked this book because it was set in working class Ireland, a setting which I haven't ever read about before, but the protagonist's life seemed really authentic and not overly-romanticised. it was also a really funny and lighthearted read in many ways because the main character was constantly making jokes as if she was talking to the reader. even though I think this book was supposed to be a romance novel, I felt like the plot didn't really involve much romance until the very end, which made it seem like actually the romance part wasn't really that important. the book also dealt with some big issues that the protagonist faced, and addressed the struggles of growing up poor in Ireland. overall this was an entertaining and unique book with a very likeable protagonist that I would recommend :)
