First Sentences: It suddenly occurred to Faye that she wasn't sure where they were headed. Brian had, of course, told her at some point but she hadn't paid much attention
My Opinion: I probably would not have picked this book to read, had it not been recommended by one of the librarians. A successful recommendation as I enjoyed it and found myself laughing out loud. A good laugh was just what I needed.
Basically a story about a weekend on a campsite in the Cotswolds, where the campers in residence were all looking for relaxation in their own way. However it turns into a camping trip like no other with some interesting and hilarious situations arising!
I shall certainly be on the look out for the sequels. They say laughter is the best medicine and this really did deliver the laughs and will appeal to campers and non-campers alike.
A thoroughly entertaining read with a wonderful cast of charismatic characters in caravans who romp from one dramatic catastrophe to another. Touching, captivating, and very, very funny.
A group of strangers pitching up on a Cotswold caravan site, looking for rest and relaxation but instead encountering starvation, sleep deprivation, dehydration, motorbikers, drunken yummy-mummies, the police, shredded feet, unexpected nakedness, curries, the great loo run, and a line dancing barbecue. Oh, and the creepy guy in a tent at the bottom of the field.
It was a camping trip like no other and it would change all their lives.
A charismatic cast of characters that you’ll fall in love with. It’s about friendship, the kindness of campers, and the heart-warming humor of people getting on each other’s nerves.
You’ll be so emotionally exhausted after reading this you’ll need a holiday to recover.
Author Profile:
Born and lives in Birmingham, UK. Whilst raising three sons I sold short stories to national magazines, including Woman’s Weekly, People’s Friend, Take a Break and, oddly, Motor Caravan World. I also ran a successful online blog, Brummie Blogs, for many years, and a weekly piece for the Sunday Mercury newspaper as Brummie Broad.
I've worked as a city centre secretary, personal assistant and 'temp', and utilise this vast experience in my writing (office staff of Birmingham, be afraid, be very afraid). I ran a transcription business at home for 16 years, before flinging caution to the wind to become a full-time writer.
