Advantages: Great read
Disadvantages: The TV series might have put you off

...I'd started watching the TV series of this book, but had given up after a couple of episodes as I couldn't get into it. If you thought the same - try the book, its loads better and I was so glad I bought it when I saw it in a bargain bookstore! Its mainly about Lucy Sullivan (of course), who is told by a tarot card reader than she'd be getting married within the next year. And so starts Lucy's search for her new husband. She meets and falls in love with Gus, who treats her terribly one minute and wonderfully the next, much to the dismay of her flatmates Karen and Charlotte, and her best friend from school, Daniel. This book will have you laughing out loud, cringeing at what Lucy gets up to, but mainly, you'll identify with her. Highly recommended.... Read review

They are just mates and have a laugh together. Lucy's parents are brought into the book too. Daniel and Lucy go to visit them but it is a chore for Lucy who is quite horrible and sarcastic to her mum. She has a lot of love for her alcoholic father. There was a mention... Read review
