This was a book that i didn't expect to like as much as i did, despite some of it being predictable, I'm so pleased I read it.
I grew to care for the characters, and although i struggled with the pacing of the book in a couple of places, the humour and character's stories more than made up for it, and i felt there was a great balance to most of the writing.
It was also refreshing to read about older people for a change, and the humourous parts were great, so I'll definitely be picking up the next book!
