Holding by Graham Norton

4.0

I loved this book! I didn't have any expectations; I just like Graham Norton as a presenter, but wasn't sure what to expect. It's a somewhat serious/heavy story told with a very lightly humorous touch. The characters are well fleshed out and believable, and the story itself is interesting. It kind of reminded me of Capital by John Lanchester or A Casual Vacancy by JK Rowling, in that it is set in a village and is about the various comings and goings of it's inhabitants. Mind, it's been a while since I read those two books, but that's the feeling I got. Very highly recommended.
