The Thing About December by Donal Ryan

5.0

The writing here is quite exceptional.

Ryan scores a bullseye every time - dialogue masterful and so witty, characterisation amazing and the storyline is rolled out with such great timing and empathy.
'Johnsey Cunliffe' is a hero to die for. You tread in every step he takes and suffer when he does.
A sad heartbreaking tale but so compelling and beautiful.

Haven't been moved by a book as much in a very long time.
